A food chain is a linear network of links in a food web, often starting with an autotroph (such as grass or algae), also called a producer, and typically ending at an apex predator (such as grizzly bears or killer whales), detritivore (such as earthworms and woodlice), or decomposer (such as fungi or bacteria). It is not the same as a food web.
15 cze 2023 · A food chain is a group of organisms that are consumed in a linear order, passing nutrients and energy along the way. Each organism in a food chain is at a particular trophic level, which is determined by how many energy transfers distance it from the chain’s primary energy source.
17 lut 2023 · A food chain is a linear sequence of organisms showing how energy or nutrient flows through an ecosystem when one organism consumes another for its survival. Learn about the four trophic levels (producers, consumers, decomposers, and detritivores) and the two types of food chains (grazing and detritus) with diagrams and examples.

6 lis 2024 · A food chain is a fundamental concept in ecology, illustrating how energy and nutrients move through an ecosystem. Food chains reveal the relationships between organisms, showing how each organism plays a role in maintaining ecological balance.
24 mar 2024 · A food chain is a line of organisms where nutrients and energy move from one to the next as one eats the other. Let’s look at the different parts of a typical food chain, starting with the producers at the bottom and working our way up. The first producers are at the bottom of the food chain.
