Consider this segment of a food web: snails and grasshoppers eat pepper plants; spiders eat grasshoppers; shrews eat snails and spiders; owls eat shrews. the shrew occupies the trophic level(s) of . primary consumer onlyb. secondary consumer onlyc. tertiary consumer onlyd. primary and secondary consumerse. secondary and tertiary consumers

the correct option is E.
