Food
Chain and Food Web
|
| Food
Chains: |
| A
food chain is small and starts with the energy from the sun. The arrows in the food chain means that that animal gets
eaten by the other animals. It is way different from a food web
because it simply connects to one other organism. |
 |
|
| Food
Webs: |
| A
food web contains many animals. The arrows connected to each other
show what gets eaten by what. Some organisms have more than one arrow connected
to them. |
 |
|
| The
Delicate Balance of Organisms: |
| If an
animal is taken out of the food chain or web, it will be destroyed,
because whatever ate what died out. Then that animal or plant will die
out and on and on. Then the world will be empty. |
