In a typical trophic pyramid, organisms are categorized into different levels based on their roles in the ecosystem. Primary consumers are those that eat primary producers (usually plants or phytoplankton).

  • Section A typically represents producers (like plants).
  • Section B usually represents primary consumers (herbivores).
  • Section C may represent secondary consumers (carnivores that eat herbivores).
  • Section D likely represents tertiary consumers (top predators).

Given this structure, the correct answer would be:

Organisms in section B (assuming this section represents primary consumers, such as herbivores).
