What is the greatest number of links a food chain could have?
It depends on the length of the chain and the size of the links. A chain as a unit of measure is 66 feet long. Four rods equals one chain. A link is 0.04 rod, or 7.92 inches. There are 100 links in a chain.

How is a food chains length related to its efficiency?
Efficiency decreases as length of food chain increase as little foo is available at end of food chain .
How long can a food chain be?
A food chain can only be up to 5 trophic levels in length, including the producer. Only a small proportion of the previous organism's energy is passed down through trophic levels to the next organism. This diminishes the energy available, so there is little or no energy to be gained after the 5th stage of a food chain. :)
What is a food chian?
A food chain is a linear sequence of links in a food web starting from species that are called producers in the web and ends at species that are called decomposers in the web. A food chain also shows how the organisms are related with each other by the food they eat. A food chain differs from a food web, because the complex polyphagous network of feeding relations are aggregated into trophic species and the chain only follows linear monophagouspathways. A common metric used to quantify food web trophic structure is food chain length. In its simplest form, the length of a chain is the number of links between a trophic consumer and the base of the web and the mean chain length of an entire web is the arithmetic average of the lengths of all chains in a food web.[1][2]
