A pitcher plant is primarily considered a consumer. It is a carnivorous plant that traps and digests insects and other small animals to obtain nutrients, particularly nitrogen, which it lacks from the soil. While it performs photosynthesis like a producer, its reliance on capturing and consuming prey classifies it as a consumer.
