A food chain does not go all complex like a food web does, meaning it has anywhere from 3-...

an example would be : grass -> rabbit -> fox

What relationship exists between trophic levels and food chain?

Trophic levels and food chains are connected in number of ways. Trophic levels show the energy transfer throughout the species in different food chains.


What are the differences between food web and trophic levels?

Food webs are made from many food chains. A trophic level in every food chain is a stage where energy is transferred from a lower level to the next higher level. Trophic levels include producers, consumers (primary and secondary), decomposers.


Is each step in a food chain or food web called?

trophic levels.


What are the 3 trophic levels in a food chain?

The three trophic levels in a food chain are producers (plants), primary consumers (herbivores that eat plants), and secondary consumers (carnivores that eat herbivores).


What is a trophic level?

Successive stages of nourishment as represented by the links of the food chain. According to a grossly simplified scheme the primary producers (ie, phytoplankton) constitute the first trophic level, herbivorous zooplankton the second trophic level, and carnivorous organisms the third trophic level.


What trophic levels do armadillos belong to?

The trophic level is the level in the food chain that an animal occupies. The armadillo belongs to both the second and third trophic levels.

Feeding levels in an ecosystem are called?

The different levels in a food chain are known as trophic levels. There are multiple levels, starting at the bottom with autotrophs, mostly plants that make their own food, and ending with apex predators, that are at the top and have no predators of their own.


Because of the constant loss of energy there can be a maximum of 7 trophic levels in a food chain. TRUE or FALSE?

False. The number of trophic levels in a food chain is influenced by factors such as energy availability, efficiency of energy transfer, and ecosystem stability. While energy loss can limit the number of trophic levels, in some cases, ecosystems can support more than 7 trophic levels.


A path of energy through the trophic levels of an ecosystem is called?

energy pyramid or nutrient pyramid.


Why does energy only flow in one direction in a given food chain?

Energy flows in one direction in a food chain due to the second law of thermodynamics, which states that energy is constantly being lost as heat when transferred between trophic levels. As a result, organisms in higher trophic levels receive less energy than those in lower trophic levels, leading to unidirectional energy flow from producers to consumers in a food chain.
