ones. They must rely on an inorganic source of carbon that has originated as part of another living organism. Heterotrophs depend directly or indirectly on autotrophs for nutrients and energy. Some categories of heterotrophs include herbivores‚ carnivores‚ omnivores‚ and scavengers. Herbivores eat autotrophs‚ such as plants and grass. There are several different types of herbivores varying from insects to mammals.

The comparison and contrast of a rabbit and tigers digestive systems Rabbits are herbivores that eat grass only. Rabbits can’t eat meat because it’s easier for them to digest grass. Tigers are carnivores that eat meat only. Tigers can’t eat grass because they cannot digest the food fast enough and their digestive system in the stomach is short. The digestive system of a tiger consists of an oesophagus‚ pancreas‚ mouth‚ stomach‚ small intestine‚ caecum‚ Large intestine. The digestive system of

is ridiculously simple: Because we do not live in a vacuum. Man isn’t the only creature on the planet that eats meat. From single-celled organisms to polar bears‚ in every environment from the deepest ocean trench to the highest mountain peaks‚ carnivores abound. So if Nature herself sees nothing "unethical" about creating scores of living beings that feast on meat‚ what makes humans think we know better? And were does this belief that meat-eating must be abolished stop? Are we to begin working to

Even though a lot of animals may be carnivores (eat other animals)‚ like stoneflies or trout do‚ it all starts with plants. Plants grow; a herbivore‚ like a mayfly‚ eats them; and a carnivore eats the herbivore. Without the plants our food supply would be reduced to nothing. The

With amphibians I found that for every gram of weight that an amphibian gains the height increases by 0.007cm. With the SRCC I have discovered that for carnivores the weight has a stronger correlation with height when compared to amphibians.

Ecology is the scientific study of interactions among organisms and their environment. In relation to The Lion King‚ ecology is the circle of life. Ecological succession can change a community by making exponential changes to the ecosystem over time‚ symbiotic relationships are important in maintaining a stable ecosystem because they provide competition‚ parasitism‚ mutualism‚ and commensalism to have balanced populations‚ and the impact of a change in the food web would be drastic to the
