Dear student
Please find your answer below to the asked query
1. Species composition - It refers to the contribution of each plant species to the vegetation. Species composition is a commonly determined attribute in rangeland inventory and monitoring. It is regarded as an important indicator of ecological and management processes at a site.

Autotrophs or Producers are the First Trophic level
Herbivores or primary consumers are the Second Trophic level
Carnivores or secondary consumers are the Third Trophic Level.
Large Carnivores or tertiary consumers are the Fourth Trophic Level.
