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.

Why marine food chain can have more than 5 trophic levels?
food webs ... and because in marine ecosystems, there are phytoplankton as well. These microorggansims are not apparant in terrestrial food chains
How are food chansand food webs different?
Food chains and food webs are different. This is because the webs have more relative food choices whereas the chains are limited.
If a food web has more than four or five trophic levels what might happen to the creatures at the highest levels?
Organisms implemented in food chains or webs have generally claimed their place there, and don't have a difficult time surviving - which means survival appears to be definite for awhile.
Why do food chains rarely consist of more than a few types of organisms?
This happens because the quantity of energy available in the organisms as food to the next trophic level decreases as you move through the food chain. For example, there may be 1000 Calories of food available if you eat the grass in a section of meadow, but only about 100 Calories in the grasshoppers in that section of meadow. That may not be enough food to support the things that eat grasshoppers, and so on. This limits the length and diversity of food chains. The longest and most complex food chains are in the open ocean!
Why does a food web tell more about an ecosystem than a food chain?
Because the food web contains2 and more food chains
Why is it more common to find short food chains than to find long food chains.?
because a food chain is based on one certain thing in the ecosystem ....if the entire ecosystem was in it it would be a food web which is food chains from an ecosystem linked together
How many different food chains can there be?
more than 60
What is a complex network of food chains?
When all food chains in a habitat are joined together in some way, they form a food web. They are normally several food chains all joined up together, and may include the same predator or prey more than once in a food chain. Food webs are slightly more complex than food chains, and may sometimes be harder to read and understand. hope this helps
How do you make a foodweb?
You can make an food web by joining 2 or more food Chains Together
How do you make foodweb?
You can make an food web by joining 2 or more food Chains Together
