Plants

Asparagus gets its energy from sunlight. They are eaten by deer and rabbits. This plant is a producer because it makes its own energy from the sunlight. A fun fact about Asparagus is that it can grow 20 ft deep.

Primary Consumer

The primary consumer of asparagus is 45% Asian, and 27% Caucasian for humans. But for animals, the primary consumers are Deers and Rabbits, as stated earlier. The primary consumers for asparagus vary from animals to humans. Asparagus is really diverse.

Secondary Consumer

The secondary consumers are Wolves, and Coyotes. These animals eat deers and rabbits, but they do not eat humans. The reason they are the secondary consumer is because they eat the animals who eat the plant. What if wolves and coyotes were the ones who ate asparagus?

Tertiary Consumer

The tertiary consumer of asparagus are bears, most commonly grizzly bears. Grizzly bears are the one who kills and eats coyotes, and sometimes wolves. They are the tertiary consumer because they eat the secondary consumer, and the secondary consumer eats the first one. I never knew bears ate wolves and coyotes.

Scavenger

The scavengers are, again wolves and coyotes. Although they eat deer and rabbits, coyotes sometimes feed off of wolf carcasses and vice versa. But this isn’t very common. It's crazy to see two very similar animals eat each other.

Decomposer

So the most common decomposer I would say would be the Maggots. The maggots break down soft tissues of the animal, eventually making a carcass of the animal. After the maggots decompose the animal, it leaves scavengers to eat it. They do it to any sort of flesh or meat.
