There is no food chain on Antarctica because it's too cold to support animal life.
In the Southern Ocean that surrounds the continent, the base of the liquid food chain is krill, Euphausia superba.
What else can I help you with?
How will the ozone hole affect the antarctic food chain and humans?
Ozone hole will affect Antarctic food chain. It will kill all the planktons.
How many krill lives in antarctica?
Krill are measured in tonnes, and the number is large enough to outweigh any of their predators. Krill are a key to the Antarctic food chain in Antarctic waters.
What eats Antarctic hair grass?
Antarctic hair grass is not part of any Antarctic food chain.
What producers live in Antarctica?
There are no producers in any food chain on the Antarctic continent, because it's too cold there for any food chain to grow.However, the Southern Ocean that surrounds the continent is the most productive food chain on earth in terms of the amount of protein produced there. The base of that productive, sea food chain is the Antarctic Krill -- Euphausia superba.The main producer in Antarctica is phytoplankton
Why is there a antarctic food chain?
The Antarctic food chain exists as a way for energy to be transferred between different organisms in the ecosystem. Just like in any other ecosystem, organisms in the Antarctic food chain rely on each other for food and energy. From phytoplankton to krill to whales, each organism plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance and health of the Antarctic ecosystem.
What is species (food chain)?
There is no Antarctic wolf. No animals live on Antarctica: it's too cold and there is no food chain.
Witch animal is at the top of the Antarctic food chain?

How do penguins nourish themselves?
Penguins feed on krill, which is the base of the Antarctic food chain. (The entire Antarctic food chain exists in the Antarctic seas and oceans that surround the continent: it's too cold for any nourishment to grow on the continent.)
Why is the killer whale on top of the Antarctic food chain?
Because the orca has no predators in Antarctic waters. The Antarctic cod provide excellent food for them, as do penguins, other birds and seals.
Who killed the seals before the Antarctic Treaty was enforced?
Seals in the Southern Ocean have always been a key member of the short food chain there. Other animals that prey on seals took them as food.
Where is the Antarctic wolf's habitat found?
There are no Antarctic wolves. No animals live on Antarctica: it's too cold and there is no food chain there.
Can Arctic foxes live in the Antarctic?
