Homework worksheet for identifying animal diets: herbivore, carnivore, or omnivore.

Let's solve this homework step by step.

---

Part 1: Review each picture. Tell whether it is an herbivore, carnivore, or omnivore.

We are given 9 images of animals. Let’s identify each one and classify them:

1. Cow – Eats grass and plants → Herbivore (H)
2. Chickens – Eat seeds, insects, grains → Omnivore (O)
3. Tiger – Hunts and eats meat → Carnivore (C)
4. Raccoon – Eats fruits, insects, small animals → Omnivore (O)
5. Shark – Eats fish and marine animals → Carnivore (C)
6. Grasshopper – Eats plant leaves → Herbivore (H)
7. Crocodile – Eats fish, birds, mammals → Carnivore (C)
8. Elephant – Eats grass, leaves, bark → Herbivore (H)
9. Pig – Eats plants, roots, insects, garbage → Omnivore (O)

Part 2: Label each animal as herbivore (H), carnivore (C), or omnivore (O).

Now, let’s classify the listed animals:

1. Owls – Eat mice, birds, insects → C
2. Caterpillars – Eat leaves → H
3. Bears – Eat berries, fish, honey, meat → O
4. Skunks – Eat insects, fruits, small animals → O
5. Eagles – Eat fish, rabbits, other birds → C
6. Giraffes – Eat leaves from trees → H
7. Rats – Eat seeds, grains, insects, garbage → O
8. Parrots – Eat fruits, nuts, seeds → H
9. Snakes – Eat rodents, birds, eggs → C
10. Sheep – Eat grass and plants → H
11. Turtles – Varies, but most eat plants and some animals → O (many are omnivores)
12. Toads – Eat insects, worms → C
13. Flies – Eat decaying matter, nectar, etc. → O
14. Squirrels – Eat nuts, seeds, fungi, sometimes insects → O
15. Beetles – Many eat wood, leaves, fruit; some are scavengers → O

Part 3: Describe the difference between a carnivore, herbivore, and omnivore.

- Herbivore (H): An animal that eats only plants (like grass, leaves, fruits, seeds). Example: cow, elephant.
- Carnivore (C): An animal that eats only meat (other animals). Example: tiger, shark.
- Omnivore (O): An animal that eats both plants and animals. Example: humans, raccoons, pigs.

These diets affect the animal’s teeth, digestive system, and behavior. For example, herbivores have flat teeth for grinding plants, carnivores have sharp teeth for tearing meat, and omnivores have a mix of both.
