What happens to the energy as you move from step to step in a chain or web?
what happens is that the energy that was to start with will be broken and half of that will go to continue the cycle because the energy that does not move on is being used by the producer, consumer or scavenger depending on which stage of the food chain or web it is on.
Is a food chain known as a food wed?
Generally it's the same thing. Technically albeit the food web is a sort of graph that shows where energy is delivered through animals. (for example energy from phytoplankton go to clams which then goes to seagulls.) While a food chain shows in what order each animal is on a chart depending on how many predators they have. (for example mice have many predators and will be at the bottom of the food chain, while lions have few predators and are at the top of the food chain.)
Why is the direction of arrows in a food chain or food web so important?
This shows the flow of energy. For example if you had a bird and a worm, the arrow would go from the worm to the bird because the bird is receiving the energy.
As we move along the food chain does the energy increase or decreases and why?
Energy decreases as we go up the food chain because there are less organisms as we go up, so that the ecosystem doesn't run out of food at the bottom of the chain.
Is a duck in the food web?
well, it could go into both. A food chain is just a simpler version of a food web. A food chain shows just about everything in a particular ecosystem and conects it al. A duck eats stuff and is eaten by other organisms so it would go around the 3rd level of a food chain.
What does an energy pyramid show us about energy in a food chain?
The difference is that a food chain is one path of energy, and a food web is overlapping food chains. As for an energy pyramid it show that there is less and less food and energy available as you go from the base to the top of the pyramid
Can you show a picture of the chimpanzee food web?
i have no idea what they eat but go to google and figure it out yourself
How can you get a picture of the red fox's food chain or web?
To create a visual representation of a red fox's food chain or web, you can start with the red fox at the top as the predator. Then, include its primary prey such as small mammals (mice, rabbits), insects, birds, and plants. Connect each organism with arrows to show the flow of energy through the chain/web. You can use images or icons to represent each organism for a more visual depiction.
What happens to the number of organisms as you go along any food chain in the food web?
The number of organisms typically decreases as you move up the food chain. This is due to energy loss at each trophic level, with only about 10% of energy being transferred from one level to the next. Therefore, less energy is available to support a large number of organisms at higher trophic levels.
Does energy and biomass increase or decrease as you go through the food chain?
Energy and biomass decrease as you move up the food chain due to the second law of thermodynamics, which states that energy is lost as it moves through trophic levels. Organisms higher up in the food chain have less energy available to them compared to those lower down.
What is the differnce between food chain and food web?

Why do food chains end?
Food chains can't go on forever because each consumer is only able to receive 10 percent of the energy that the plant that was eaten had. There are also only so many animals that are able to eat other animals.
