I WONDER - What Is A Trophic Level?

The video explains the concept of trophic levels in food webs, categorizing organisms into producers, consumers, and decomposers. Producers, or autotrophs, create their own food through photosynthesis. Consumers, unable to produce their own food, rely on eating plants or other animals. Decomposers break down non-living organic matter, recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem.
