The energy transfer will be from c) primary consumer to secondary consumer.
Explanation: In a food chain, energy is transferred from one trophic level to another as organisms consume other organisms. A grasshopper, being an herbivore, feeds on plants (producers) making it a primary consumer. A frog, on the other hand, is a carnivore that feeds on other animals, such as grasshoppers, making it a secondary consumer. When a frog eats a grasshopper, the energy stored in the grasshopper's body is transferred to the frog, thus the transfer is from primary consumer (grasshopper) to the secondary consumer (frog).

The energy transfer in this scenario would be from a primary consumer (grasshopper) to a secondary consumer (frog). The grasshopper is considered a primary consumer because it eats plants, which are producers. When the frog eats the grasshopper, it is consuming the energy that was obtained by the grasshopper from the plants it ate. Therefore, the energy transfer is from a primary consumer to a secondary consumer.
