This also applies to a food chain - The arrows in a food web represent the flow of energy through the web, further along the arrows/web means that less energy is moving along. The energy flows through arrow to the next consumer, the energy moving through the arrows have less and less energy as the web moves on.

To put it in (much) simpler terms, the thing its pointing to eats the other thing.
