Why a food chain with more than 6 organism is not likely to be a successful one?

There is a loss of energy at each trophic level, such that insufficient energy can be gained by animals at the "top" end of longer food chains/webs.

Which organism is likely to be in the bottom trophic level of a food chain?
algea
An organism that feeds on others in a food chain?
an organism that feeds on others in food chain
Why is there a antarctic food chain?
When there is a transfer of energy from living organism to living organism, a food chain is created.
Which level of the food chain at which an organism is found is known as its?
what level of the food chain at which an organism is found is known as its?
Explain how energy is transferred through a food chain?
Energy is transferred through a food chain when an organism eats another organism. As the food chain progresses, less energy is available when an organism is consumed.
What is a diagram that shows how energy in fod flows from one organism to another?
A food chain.
Why are the arrows on a food chain not pointed the other way?
The arrows in a food chain indicate the direction of energy flow from organism to organism.
What happens to the food chain if any of the link misses out?
The food chain will not be successful since the organism which depends on the removed food will start looking for something else to depend on or will starve to dead e.g if the grasshopper depends on grass for it survival and the grass is distorted in the food chain the grasshopper will surely die
What are the possible consequences of adding an organism to a food chain?
A consequence of adding an organism to the food chain is that some of the animals die because the organism could possibly poison anything that eats the organism.
Diagram that represents how energy in food molecules flows from on organism to the next?
food chain
What do the arrows in the food chain represent?
How energy moves from organism to organism.
Which organisms is most likely to be found at the beginning of a food chain?
Every food chain necessarily begins with an organism that doesn't eat any other organism (if it did eat another organism, it would not be the beginning of the food chain) which is technically known as an autotroph. We are generally familiar with organisms that conduct photosynthesis, although that is not the only kind of autotroph; there are also bacteria which metabolize minerals coming from underwater vents, which live symbiotically in vent worms.
