Food Web And Food Chain. Food chains, food web, are the part of the ecosystem which can be described as the community of the smallest microorganisms, plants to the higher animals that feed, live, reproduce, interact and die in the same area or environment. To understand how plants and animals interact, scientists make diagrams called food chains.
A food chain only follows just one path as animals find food.
A food chain shows a sequence of living things in which one organism eats the one below it. A food web consists of many food chains. How food chains and food webs represent the flow of energy and matter. But we can help you sort it out.
