Answer
Tiger, grass, snake, frog
Reason — A food chain’s first trophic level is made up of producers (plants) and the second trophic level contains primary consumers (herbivores) that feed on those producers.
In the food chain — Tiger, grass, snake, frog — grass (a producer) is present but there is no herbivore shown that eats the grass before higher predators appear. The chain therefore lacks the primary-consumer (second trophic) level.
