Answer:

  • In a food chain that consist of grass, mouse, snake, and hawk, the         hawk     is the tertiary consumer

Explanation:

There is a typo in the sentence: it is not territory but tertiary.

The correct sentence is:

  • In a food chain that consist of grass, mouse, snake, and hawk, the ______ is the tertiary consumer

Solution

Producer is the organism that makes its own food: grass.

Prymary consumer is the organism that feeds on the producer: mouse eats grass.

Secondary consumer is the organism that feeds on the prymary consumer: snake eats mouse.

Tertiary consumer is the organism that feeds on the secondary consumer: hawk eats snake. Thus, hawk is the tertiary consumer.
