A food chain is a sequence of links from one species to another in a food web. Food chains show links from producer to consumer organisms. For example:
aquatic vegetation ---- fish ------- seagull
On the other hand a food web shows interconnections between food chains. For example:
aquatic vegetation ----------- fish --- seagull or fish ----- larger fish -------- sea eagle
In this food web there is a link from fish to seagull and also a link from fish to larger fish to sea eagle
a food web is when you have different varieties and it differs because a food chain is only a line
A food web is linked together. A food chain has one animal eating the weaker one below it.
There isn't a big difference between the food chain and food web. This is just a different way of drawing out the same concept.
nothing they can be called two different names.
get back to your science assessment
the difference is that a food chain is smaller then a food web because a food web is more animals then a food chain
The difference is a food chain is the interactions among organisms occording to what they eat. A food web shows the interactions among many different food webs
A food chain or food web starts with producers, such as plants, that convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. These producers are then consumed by primary consumers (herbivores), which are in turn consumed by secondary consumers (carnivores) and so on. This forms a linear food chain or a more complex food web.
A food web consists of many food chains. A food chain only follows one path as animals find food. For example A hawk eats a snake, which has eaten a frog, which has eaten a grasshopper, which has eaten grass. A food web shows many different paths.

[science]a food web is more ways a consumer or proudecer is eatin and food chain shows little ways
a process of eating and eaten by is known as food chain, that is an animal eating its prey and also eaten by other animal. grass--------- grass hopper-----------frog--------snake an interconnected food chain is known as food web
