Melody Vincent · Answer 1

the answer is a. both as a primary and secondary consumer

Explanation:

primary consumers eat producers.

secondary consumers eat primary consumers.

in this scenario, the bird fits into both categories, because it feeds on berries (producers) and plant-eating insects (primary consumers)
