Question
In terms of feeding relationships, which is not correctly paired?
Correct Answer
Option A is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
An elephant is a primary consumer (herbivore) that eats plants. A detritivore is an organism that feeds on dead organic matter (detritus), such as earthworms or dung beetles. Therefore, 'Elephant-detritivore' is the incorrect pairing. The others are correct: fungi and many bacteria are decomposers, and rabbits are herbivores.
Hint
Which animal is not correctly matched with its feeding role? Does an elephant eat dead matter?
