What would happen to the food chain if there was no rain at all?

Carnivores eat herbivores, but they also eat omnivores, which is another category that combines the herbivore and the carnivore. Certainly there would be much less food available to carnivores if all the herbivores were gone, and the number of carnivores would decrease, but as long as there are still omnivores, then there is the opportunity for some carnivores to continue to exist. For example, we human beings are omnivores, and even if all the herbivores were to disappear, we would find a way to continue to feed our pet dogs and cats, which are carnivores. Pigs are also omnivores, so presumably we would still have them as farm animals and food sources.

What will happen to the food chain in the amazon without iguanas?
The iguana is native to the semi-arid territory of North America, not the Amazon rain forest. It is an insectivorous reptile, and its loss in any food chain would likely create more opportunity for other insectivorous species to expand their niche.

What would happen if the howler monkey was removed from the food web in the rain forest?
If any animal was removed from the food web the animals that it would prey on would overpopulate and the animals that hunted it would starve because it has nothing to feed on.
What are the examples of response to the environment?
An example would be acid rain, cuz it is sometimes natural (not all of it is caused by humans). So, when acid rain falls it kills many marine creatures, and this will eventually lead to a gap in the food chain.
