Answer:

B. a fox

Step-by-step explanation:

A secondary consumer is those that, to produce energy, consume primary consumers. Those are always herbivores or organisms that only eat autotrophic plants.

In this case, a rabbit and a cow are primary consumers.

The mouse is herbivores too.

The only option left is Fox.

Foxes eat other animals, they are carnivorous. This made the fox a secondary consumer.
