yes provided that you are talking about a single food chain only within that ecosystem. If you are referring to a food web, then there are other energy transfer pathways. In a simple food chain, if the producer (such as a plant) dies then the consumers will die as well. for example: grass-fly-frog-snake
If the grass is no longer there then the fly will die out causing the frogs to die out etc. If the frog dies out then the snakes will have no food causing them to die and creating a situation where there are now too many frogs which will mean that they will eat more of the flies etc. The most stable ecosystem is one with a lot of diversity and a food web not a simple food chain.
if the prey dies out it affects the entire food chain, because all the predators and predators to the predators and so on, will have no food and die out eventually.
When the producer or consumer or in fact anything in it dies out or is removed then the food chain is destroyed.
If one animal in the food chain dies, all other above it dies, and the animals below flourish, but eventually die from overpopoulation
nothing
it becomes a producer
It hurts the world by harming the food chain. If one scpecies dies out then the whole food chain would suffer, ecpecially if the species were at the botttom of the food chain.
It would disrupt the entire food chain of the entire U.S. if we did not.
Alive it is essentially at the top of the food chain...when it dies and decomposes it provides nutritents that begin the cycle over again.
photosynthesis
photosynthesis
it is a mouse
Yes every living thing forms part of the food chain eventually. If a animal dies it becomes part of the food chain, because bacteria brakes it down and put the necessary nutrients back to earth.
