Answer:

C. mountain lion-consumer; bark beetle-herbivore

Step-by-step explanation:

Food webs contain a series of inter-connected food chains. In a food web, organisms in different trophic levels feed on one another to obtain energy. Based on the diagram attached to this question, the roles of different organism is as follows:

- MOUNTAIN LION: This is a consumer i.e organism that feeds on other animals. This is the case as seen in the diagram that mountain lions are feeding on rabbits and Hawks.

- BARK-BEETLE: This is an herbivore because it feeds directly on the plants as seen in the attached image.
