Best Answer

the producer might be reindeer moss,
the herbivore could be an acrtic moose, if those exist, or an animal that lives in the arctic tundra that only eats plants,
the carnivore might be an Arctic fox, and the decomposer could be fungi
The food chain is alive and thriving in the Arctic tundra. First, there is bacteria in the water, which small fish eat off of. The lakes are shallow. It is also very cold there, so most of the animals living there have fur coats, thick hide, lots of feathers, etc. Well In the primary producers is grass and other small flower-like plants that survive cold climates. Plants are short because the ground is warm, and they like being warm. Some plants even have hair. Next is the primary consumers. There are musk oxen, insects like mosquitoes, and lemmings. (rat-like creatures) Small predators, like the Snowy Owl and the Arctic Fox feed off of mostly the lemmings. There are much more animals I didn't mention, but I hope this gives you an idea of what its like! :)

One example of a tundra food chain is grass is consumed by lemmings, which are eaten by Arctic fox. Another would be grass is eaten by caribou, and caribou are eaten by wolves. A third example could be Canada goose eats seeds, and an Arctic fox eats the goose.

First, reindeer eats the mushroom

then, grizzly bear eat the reindeer

finally, grizzly bear dies and mushrooms grow on him
