Another carnivore would take its place as the top.
the food that the carnivore would increase (secondary carnivores). and the food that the secondary carnivores ate would decrease because there are too many secondary carnivores...
The whole food chain would be affected.

∙ 10y agoWell the other organisms that are usually preyed upon by the 2nd level carnivore may quickly increase because no one is eating it. But there food supply would decrease IF they overpopulate. Then they would go back down to there regular population because of the food shortage. The oranisms that would decrease in population are the 1rst level carnivores( but before they increased) and all the insects and small rodents would decrease because thay have been sprayed with pesticides so now the 1rst level carnivores now have nothing to eat.

∙ 13y agoIf all the carnivores died then the herbivore populations would increase and could either stabilize or drastically drop.
This is because without a limit, a herbivore population could grow too large for its environment and use all of their resources; this would cause the population to grow rapidly until it could not sustain itself and the majority of the large population could die due to lack of resources. Or it could grow somewhat steadily and level off, having a cycle of slightly larger and smaller generations due to resource limits (they would be living within their means).

What would happen to each part of the food chain if lots of green fly got a disease and died?
the food chain would have to change
Why is there no food chain without herbivores and carnivores?
herbivores dont matter. without carnivores no animals would be eaten
Why are there fewer carnivores than herbivore?
Plants produce food Herbivores eat plants Carnivores eat herbivores Thus to keep everyone fed there have to be more plants than there are herbivores to eat them (or the herbivores would starve) and more herbivores than carnivores (or the carnivores would starve).
What would be the 1 thing to happen in this food chain if there was a drought and the grass died?
Herbivores would be forced to range wider.
What would happen if you eliminate herbivores from the food chain?
It would collapse and everything would die
What would happen if lions were removed from food chain?
there would be a lot of herbivores and eventually all the herbivores would have eaten most of the grass and some would start dying
What would happen to the zebras and lions if most grass died of a long drought?
Lions feed on mostly herbivores, which includes zebras. Herbivores eat plants, and if there were no more plants, herbivores would starve to death, which would cause lions to turn to other animals for food. They might all die from lack of water before then, though.
What would happen if deer in a certain area increased?
Then there would be less grass and food available for other deer and herbivores.
What would happen if herbivores died?
they would just die
What would happen to the food web if mountain lions or sharks became vegetarians?
the producers would decrease in population as the herbivores which the sharks would have ate, would grow in population.
What would happen if all of the herbivores died out?
if all animals would be herbivores then there would be more plant eating animals but plants and trees would not increase and one or the other day all herbivores also will be extinct.
What would herbivores compete with in desert areas?
Herbivores compete with other herbivores for the limited food and water available in a desert.
What would happen if all the protists on earth died?
There would not be enough food food energy for sea creatures to survive.
What would happen in a food chain if the consumers died?
If all the consumers in a food chain died, only the lowest rung of a food chain (the autonomic non-consumer) would survive.
What would happen to food if the sun died?
same as everything, it would die!!!! same as everything, it would die!!!!
