Learn about the complex feeding relationships in the marine environment, illustrated by food web diagrams and trophic pyramids. Find out how producers, consumers and decomposers interact and how food webs are affected by human impacts.
Learn about the structure and function of marine food webs, which are networks of trophic interactions among marine organisms. Find out how phytoplankton, zooplankton, fish, mammals and other species are linked by food chains and food webs.

19 paź 2023 · Marine Food Chain. The marine ecosystem is made up of a complicated series interconnected energy producers—like plants and photoplankton—and consumers—from plant-eaters to meat-eaters, both great and small. Grades. 3 - 12. Subjects. Biology, Ecology. Image. Dugong Feeding on Seagrass.
1 lut 2019 · Learn how aquatic food webs describe who eats whom in marine ecosystems and how changes affect many species. Explore the roles of producers, consumers, predators, scavengers, and humans in the food web.
Learn how to model marine ecosystems with virtual reality and explore food webs and trophic levels. This module includes activities, worksheets, and NGSS alignment for students to research and create food web diagrams for different habitats.
Food web diagrams, such as Figure 1, depict these complex feeding relationships. By convention, arrows point from the prey to the predator, which is also the direction of energy flow in the feeding process. Food webs can reveal that the distinction between primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers isn’t always clear-cut.
