What is the same between a food chain and a food web?

Answer 1

No. A food web is how a whole bunch of organisms--generally an ecosystem-- are connected with each other through how they eat. A food chain starts with one organism and continues down that one line.

Answer 2

Well first of all they both relate to animaks being related to other animals or eating other things but a food WEB is where its all over the place like the animals can eat more than one other animal and can be eatened already. Well a food CHAIN is its just like one and one animal or living orginisam!!!! YOUR WELCOME... GOOD LUCK WITH... WHATEVER!!

Answer 3

Yes they are just different representations of the hierarchy of organisms in a given ecosystem, biome, etc.

A food chain is organized in ascending 'levels', if you will, where the higher level preys on the lower level(s). In the food chain, you will typically find plant-life (autotrophs) near the bottom, followed by herbivores/omnivores and carnivores, all of which are heterotrophs (organisms that rely on other organisms as a source of food). Sometimes you will also find decomposers (mushrooms, misc. fungi, etc.)

A food web is a graphic showing various organisms, and connects them based on their predatory habits.

Answer 4

yes, pretty much. the only difference is that the food web is more detailed then a food chain, a food chain can only show one thing at a time a food web can show lots.
