What is the name given to animals which eat only plants or plant products?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → Herbivores
Animals that feed only on plants or plant products are called herbivores — cattle, deer, elephants and rabbits, for example. They occupy the first consumer level of a food chain and often have flat grinding teeth and long digestive tracts suited to plant material.
Carnivores eat other animals, omnivores eat both plants and animals, and nectar is a sugary plant fluid, not a category of animal at all.
