Food Chain
They are called producers because only they can manufacture food from inorganic raw materials.
This food feeds herbivores, called primary consumers.
Carnivores that feed on herbivores are called secondary consumers.
Carnivores that feed on other carnivores are tertiary (or higher) consumers
