Explain the reason that eating lower on a food chain provides more food energy that eating higher on the food chain?
Biomass refers to the food available for the next trophic level in a food chain. There is a higher biomass on the lower levels of the food chain, hence eating on those levels would provide more food energy.
What makes up the second and higher steps in a food chain?
photosynthesis
Why does food chain triangle shape?
Not sure if you are asking about the food chain, or the food pyramid, so I'll answer both: The higher you are on the food chain (near the top of the pyramid), the less likely you are to be eaten. Plants are at the bottom of the food chain, because almost everything eats plant matter, however very few plants eat meat! Animals are higher on the chain, and humans are near the top. Just remember, animals will eat humans too, but we are typically smarter so we can out gun an animal. The higher you go on the food pyramid, the less servings you are supposed to eat. Breads and cereals are at the bottom, which means we are supposed to eat more servings of them than say, meat.
Are there more herbivores or carnivores in the Serengeti?
Should be herbivores since carnivores are higher in the food chain.
Why is a komodo dragon food chain not a food chain?
It is a food chain.

When people say eat low on food chain what type of food are they recommending?
Mostly plants. Meat would be higher up the food chain.
What eats an consumer?

A predator is a person who do what?

Why animals at the top of a food chain are particularly at risk from poison in the environment?
This is biological magnification; the concentration of poison in the environment gets higher and higher as it goes up the food chain. The poisons are kept in the bodies of the animals that eat them. They are not broken down or eliminated. So a predator that is higher up the chain gets a lot of the poison from its food. -Shawney M.
What is the process where pollution levels increase through the food chain?
increase in concentration of a pollutant from one link in a food chain to another. Biomagnification is the bioaccumulation of a substance up the food chain by transfer of residues of the substance in smaller organisms that are food for larger organisms in the chain. It generally refers to the sequence of processes that results in higher concentrations in organisms at higher levels in Biomagnification: the food chain (at higher trophic levels). These processes result in an organism having higher concentrations of a substance than is present in the organism's food. Biomagnification can result in higher concentrations of the substance than would be expected if water were the only exposure mechanism. Accumulation of a substance only through contact with water is known as bioconcentration..
