Energy is in the plants and the herbivores eat the plants, then gaining the energy from the plants. Then carnivore eats herbivore then gaining energy from herbivore. Therefor energy is in the food web! (I think I'm right but if u get this wrong, sorry, just blame it on Gabby: me)

The light from the sun allows the plants to grow (photosynthesis). In the plant is now energy an animal is now going to eat it, lets just say the animal is an aphid. The aphid then has some of the energy stored in it. For the process to go on along the food chain the spider then eats the aphid, the spider then has some of the energy stored in it. Then the thrush eats the spider and it then too has some of the energy stored in it. And so on, and so forth.

I Hope This Helps as we were learning about this not long ago (year 8)

How are food chains food webs and food pyramids similar?

They show mainly the same info: how energy flows through predation. Food chains show a specific path in which energy flows, food webs show many different variations of paths, with many different species involved, while food pyramids show the same thing as a food chain, but in a pyramid box.
