How many food chains are there total in the world?
food chains are generally short,most food chains have anywhere from 3 or 4 links.food chains are generally short,most food chains have anywhere from 3 or 4 links.4 types
Why must a food chain be kept at not more than 4 or 5 organisms?
as if there are too many organisms, the organisms population would drop faster
Why is a food chain normally limited to 4 or 5 links?
Not all food chains are linked just 4 or 5.
What organisms have the most pesticides?
The organisms at thetop of the food chain will contain the most DDT. These are the top carnivores (or humans if we are in the food chain).DDT builds up in food chains for several reasons:1) It is a persistent pesticide IE: it is difficult for any organisms to break it down, it is non-biodegradable.2) It is soluble in fat, so it enters the fat storage tissue (adipose tissue) and stays there.3) Organisms higher in the food chain consume DDT every time they feed on organisms lower down in the food chain, if they are contaminated with DDT.4) The biomass at each level in a food chain gets less, so the concentration of DDT will increase.The increase in concentration of pesticides in a food chain is called bio-magnification.Additional Information: Seals, Predatory Fish, Bears, Predatory Birds, Bats.
Why all organisms need food?
Q 1 Why do all living organisms need food?A 1 All living organisms need food for good health ,for energy and etcthank youFrom Emmanuel .Remy. Denis
Why do most food chains consist of no more than 3 or 4 levels?
During the progression of each stage, the organisms in the food chain exert tons of energy. Most chains are broken down to four stages for that reason.

Does a food chain need a consumer?
Yes, food chains do need a consumer. There are 4 types of consumers.
Organisms that are eaten by other organisms for food?
[1] Organisms that are eaten by other organisms for food is what makes up the predator-prey relationships of food chains. [2] The food chain begins with food producers. Then it goes to plant-eaters as primary consumers, to meat-eaters as secondary/tertiary/quarternary consumers, to everything-eaters. [3] Examples of a water food chain are phytoplankton as producers, zooplankton as plant-eaters, fish as meat-eaters of each other, and sharks as everything-eaters. [4] Examples of a land food chain are plants as producers, insects as plant-eaters, mammals and reptiles and birds as meat-eaters, and bears as everything-eaters.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of food chains and food webs?
The main advantage of the food chain is that it is simple and easy to understand what organisms eat and ho the energy flows between them. It's very simple and usually only 3-4 chians long inrespect to a food web which shows a collection of the food chains linked together thus gives a broader and a fuller picture of the feeding relationships between organisms. The main limitation of a food chain compared to a foodweb is that the food chain only shows that a consumer only feeds on one type of prey but in the food web the consumer could on more than one prey. The main disadvantages of both the food chains and the food web is that the they both only possess qualitative information and dont show any quantitaive information thus you cannot know the number or the amount of mass or the energy stored within each trophic level.

Why are Protists important?
1. They help in the process of producing oxygen. 2. They are the main base of food webs and food chains. Without them, the webs and chains could not survive. 3. Protists are actually known to be used in toothpaste! 4. Protists can be used in the thickening of ice cream and bread. =] == ==
What are the 4 basic needs all organisms require?
food water gas exchange habitat
If 11 key chains cost 53.35 then 4 key chains cost?
(53.35/11)*4=19.40
If food is cooked then set aside how long before micro-organisms grow to spoil the food and be the possible cause of food poisoning?
4 hours at room temperature
There are 4 basic substances that have been used by living organisms over and over again to live and grow What are these 4 substances?
Food, air, water and shelter.
