Every organism needs to obtain energy in order to live. For example, plants get energy from the sun, some animals eat plants, and some animals eat other animals.
A food chain is the sequence of who eats whom in a biological community (an ecosystem) to obtain nutrition. A food chain starts with the primary energy source, usually the sun or boiling-hot deep sea vents.

An example of a food chain with a plant would be: grass (plant) - grasshopper (herbivore) - frog (carnivore) - snake (carnivore) - hawk (carnivore). In this chain, the plant (grass) is consumed by the herbivore (grasshopper), which is then consumed by the frog, and so on up the chain.
A food chain can have as few as three links. For example, a plant being eaten by a herbivore, which is then eaten by a predator.
Tiger - Fox- Rat - Insects- Grass I think its right but... The food chain is going ->->
Generally it's the same thing. Technically albeit the food web is a sort of graph that shows where energy is delivered through animals. (for example energy from phytoplankton go to clams which then goes to seagulls.) While a food chain shows in what order each animal is on a chart depending on how many predators they have. (for example mice have many predators and will be at the bottom of the food chain, while lions have few predators and are at the top of the food chain.)
food chain
grass < mouse < snake < hawk
the prairie
grasses mostly it starts with grass then the animals
food chain
well if it is in a prairie the chain is different for example grass to mouse to snake to hawk, the predators and plant life changes in different regions
poo pee eats prairie chickens.
a jungle food chain
this is easy the prairie dog eats the alfalfa and he hawk eats the praire dog
Prairie Dogs have to hunt for their own food and have to protect themselves and their food from Predators.

Hares, rabbits, marmots, squirrels and prairie dogs are the main sources of food for the golden eagle.
