Which consumer exclusively eats plants?

  1. Carnivore

  2. Omnivore

  3. Herbivore

  4. Decomposer

The correct answer is: Herbivore

A Herbivore is a consumer that exclusively eats plants. Carnivores mainly eat meat, whereas omnivores eat both plants and meat. Decomposers break down dead organic material, and while they sometimes feed on plants, they are not considered consumers as they obtain nutrients from the decaying material. Therefore, the other options are incorrect for varying reasons, making C the only correct answer.
