What else can I help you with?
What would a scavenger be in an Australian Grasslands food web?
A hermaflafla
Why do animals at the end of a food web have more pesticides?
Pesticides are cumulative, so the animals at the end of the food web have more of them.
What does a food food chain or food web start with?
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.
When a lion is dead how does it fit into the food web?
it goes from a consumer to a producer and provides food for the other animals, basically starting at the beginning of the food web again.
What are some Canadian web sights?
As Australian web sites end in .au and british web sites end in .uk then ther is a fair chance that Canadian web sites would end in .ca. I would recomend you start with companies that should have branches in Candada
What are the tags that indicate the beginning and end of a Web-based response form?
...input elements...
What is the original source of energy for all animals in the food web?
the sun is the beginning of all food chains
Who do you turn a food chain to a food web?
You keep a producer then one 1st order consumer then a 2nd order consumer and last a 3rd order consumer and at the end use a fungi or a mushroom or bacteria to end the food web
What is a over lapping food chain?
Food web.
What is the Australian Rabbit's food web?
the eat trees that die off because of them eating the baby trees and Foxes and volutes and owls :)
Does the decomposer come after the carnivore in the food web?
Yes,in a food chain or a web first come the plants which are the producers, then herbivores then carnivores or omnivores who all are consumers and then at the end we have the decomposers .
How might an omnivore be a link to both the beginning of a food web and the end?
== == Since it is a "WEB" there is no beginning or end as you say. However there are interesting things to behold if you look at the food web from the perspective of energy flow and how different types of organisms "link or knot" together in the flow of energy through the web. Lets look at it from the perspective of the omnivore: We can entirely identify with Homo sapiens, or man. Man as an omnivore may eat plants or algae (sea weed, spirulina) which use the energy from the sun to fix carbon into energy molecules like sugar. Plants as primary producers of biologically available energy could be considered to be the "beginning" of the web. Have a salad and you have tied yourself (an omnivore hopefully) to this part of the web. This is the Herbivore in us. Being omnivorous humans can eat insects (which many cultures do) or cows, which both feed on plants and can be considered the next link in the flow of energy. We could continue eating our way through the food energy web to link to the "end" when we feast on shark or bear (also an omnivore) or lion or crocodile or any animal that eats other animals. This is the carnivore and predator in us. However this "end" may not be the end as our feces (poop) is further fed upon by bacteria or fungi (decomposer) extracting the very last amounts of bio-available energy from the biomass and returning some minerals and other nutrients to the soil, which the plants then use. This could also be considered the "beginning" of the web. The food web is a complex system that has no beginning or end and has many loops, twists, knots and folds with no edges. Picture a ball net like the ones soccer balls are kept in, but empty and folded and wadded into a pile. You can think of omnivores as the cross links between various places on the web connecting a myriad of organisms. The term food chain is antiquated and its use indicates ignorance of the complexity of life. The answer seems pretty obvious if you have adequately expressed your question. An omnivore basically eats everything. Therefore its link to the beginning would be when it eats something lower than itself on the food chain. Its link to the end would be if it were eaten by another creature. Once the predator ate and digested it, your omnivore would become fertilizer which would nourish the plants that other creatures at the lower end of the food chain feed on - maybe another omnivore. And if predators didn't pick your omnivore's carcass clean, the remaining soft tissue would rot and decay...ending up as fertilizer. I know your question used the term 'food web' and in my answer I used 'food chain' but I think you should be able to figure out how my answer translates to fit your question. It works pretty much the same way.
