You can't. ALL food chains start with a plant such as grass or fruit from a tree.

Why are the producers always the start of the food chain?

If you have a food chain then the chain must have a beginning (where the food is made) and an end (where the food is finally all used up). Thius in a food chain the "producers" of the food (the plants) are ALWAYS the start. The plants make food using CO2 from the air, Water from the ground and the energy they collect from Sunlight. It is the passing on of this energy from the Sun that is the chain.

What food chain doesn't start with the sun?

Actually the food chain starts with a producer. The producer makes its own food during the process called photosynthesis. In which it gets its energy from the Sunlight. This is one reason why we sometimes say that a food chain starts with the Sun.Sunlight----> (falls on) Plant----> (plant carries out photosynthesis to make food)----> (plant fresh and green!!)Sunlight--> Plant--> Caterpillar--> Bird--> Cat--> Decomposers.


What food chain includes Bird eating insects?

A food chain that includes a bird eating insects might start with plants, which produce energy through photosynthesis. Herbivorous insects feed on these plants, and then small birds, such as sparrows or warblers, consume the insects. This chain illustrates the transfer of energy from producers (plants) to primary consumers (insects) and then to secondary consumers (birds).

What is a food chain for a wildcat?

Why do producers start every food chain?

Every food chain must start with a producer turning energy into food. You cannot have a food chain until food has been produced. This is usually done by plants with chlorophyll, using the rays of the sun for energy. Once the food has been produced, then you can have a food chain. You can list the consumers who eat the plants and then the ones who eat the plant eaters and then the ones who eat the meat eaters.


Why can't a food chain start without photosynthesis?

The food chain does not start with Photosynthesis because Photosynthesis is the process in which a plant makes sugar for it to survive. A food chain is more likely to start with grasses or a small rodent and or a bug
