Explanation:

In the trophic web, the energy transference occurs when each organism feeds on the preceding link and is eaten by the following link.

The first ones are the autotroph organism or producer, such as a vegetable, that can synthesize organic matter from inorganic matter.

The following links are the consumers: herbivores are primary consumers and feed on producers. Carnivores are secondary consumers and feed on herbivores, and so on. The last links are the decomposers, microorganisms that act on dead animals degrading organic matter.

According to the definition of secondary consumers, among the animals on the list, we can assume that the lynx and the wolf are the only secondary consumers. They are both carnivores and feed on herbivores.
