It would totally either....ruin the whole chain...
or help the chain because of it's being goneness!!
Since each plant or animal in a food chain is dependent on the plant or animal below it for food if one of those in the chain goes away (becomes extinct) or just isn't available in enough quantity, the next one up the chain starves to death.
The food chain gets broken every time a creature goes extinct.
If a link in a food chain is broken, it can disrupt the entire ecosystem. For example, if a predator species goes extinct, it can lead to overpopulation of its prey species, which can then have cascading effects on other species lower in the food chain. This can lead to imbalances in population sizes, changes in species composition, and overall ecosystem instability.
Extinction. The species goes extinct.
If one species goes extinct there won't be as many species effected by the extinction because there are o many other species to feed on. BIODIVERSITY;)
Then since that species has gone extinct, then there will be a chain reaction. maybe just like with animals, every plant counts on another for existence. so eventually they would all probably all die out.
It needs to eat food, and if their food is vanished then they too can die. I something in their food web goes extinct, it will also effect them.

As one this is removed from a food chain the whole thing goes out of wack, say mice go extinct what ever used to eat the mice will now have to find a new food source and whatever it chooses numbers will start to decrease and so on a whole habitat can be screwed over
Generally, when a species goes extinct, other species suffer. If it is a prey animal, its predators have less food, and therefor suffer. If it is a pollinator, any plants that it pollinates will suffer (if it is the sole pollinator of a plant, that plant will go extinct). Also, if the extinct species controls the population of another species, the other species will multiply out of control, and possibly severely damage the local ecosystem.
Extinction. When a species fails to adapt, it dies out.
It is the main cause of extreme habitat loss for thousands of animal species, and the trees give off oxygen to sustain the planets air supply. If we keep on with deforestation, thousands of animal species will become critically endangered or extinct. If one species goes extinct, we are all in danger. It breaks the chain of life.
