What is an organism that produces its own food from the sun the bottom of the food chain?
There are various sources (such as heat, nutrients, etc.) and they are processed in many ways. In many cases the first organism in a chain lives off of the wastes of the high animals of the chain.Would need a specific chain to be able to answer more definitively.
When considering the transfer of energy how does being at the top of the food chain affect an organism?
Being at the top of the food chain means that the organism has fewer predators to worry about, which can lead to a more stable source of food and energy. However, it also means that they are more susceptible to any changes or disruptions in the ecosystem, as they have fewer alternative food sources available.
How many plants and animals are in the food chain?
A food chain typically consists of multiple plants and animals, with each organism feeding on the one below it. The number of plants and animals in a food chain can vary depending on the ecosystem and the complexity of the interactions between organisms.
Is it true man can occupy more than one trophic level?
No, a single individual cannot occupy multiple trophic levels. Trophic levels represent an organism's position in a food chain, with each level representing a different feeding hierarchy. An organism can only belong to one trophic level based on its primary source of energy and nutrients.
What are the features of a food chain?
A food chain shows the flow of energy and nutrients from one organism to another in an ecosystem. It consists of producers, consumers, and decomposers. Each level represents a trophic level, with energy being transferred from one level to the next.
Why is a food web better then a food chain in terms of what eats the organism and what does the oraganism eat?
The term 'food web' is better than 'food chain' because the food web shows more paths of what an organism can eat, while the food chain only focuses on one path.
What organism belongs to more than one food chain?
plants and insects
Why are there more rabbits than coyotes?
Generally the lower in a food chain an organism is the more abundant it is.
What advantage do organism in a food web have over those in a food chain?
There is no advantage as all animals are involved in both food chains and food webs. The only difference is through the fact that food webs are more complex and supply more information then a food chain.
If 1 organism is removed from a food chain what will happen to the number of organism before it?
This is a hard queston I would think that the animals before it would have to find a new food source or die out them selves but this is why a food web is more real world than a food chain in the food chain anything after the one that some how just went away they would die off as well
What would happen to a food chain if the population of one of the organisms increased?
If the population of one organism increased, it could lead to competition for resources among species at lower trophic levels, causing potential shifts in the food chain dynamics. This could result in either an increase or decrease in the populations of other organisms in the food chain, depending on the specific interactions and relationships within the ecosystem.
What is an organism that produces its own food from the sun the bottom of the food chain?
There are various sources (such as heat, nutrients, etc.) and they are processed in many ways. In many cases the first organism in a chain lives off of the wastes of the high animals of the chain.Would need a specific chain to be able to answer more definitively.
What is the difference between a food web a food chain and a biomass?
the difference between the food chain and the food web is the food chain is the linear transfer of energy from one organism to the next. And the food web is the complex interconnecting food chains in a community.
When considering the transfer of energy how does being at the top of the food chain affect an organism?
Being at the top of the food chain means that the organism has fewer predators to worry about, which can lead to a more stable source of food and energy. However, it also means that they are more susceptible to any changes or disruptions in the ecosystem, as they have fewer alternative food sources available.
If one organism in a food web takes part in more than one food chain what can result?
the organism links the two food webs and combines them into a larger one. This also means the two food webs are in the same ecosystem or are the same type of ecosystem
How many plants and animals are in the food chain?
A food chain typically consists of multiple plants and animals, with each organism feeding on the one below it. The number of plants and animals in a food chain can vary depending on the ecosystem and the complexity of the interactions between organisms.
How an energy pyramid and a food chain are the same and different?
A food chain shows food energy moving from organism to organism. A pyramid ofnumbers show how many organisms were involved in each level of food chain. Food chains always begin with the sun as the source of energy and the pyramid of numbers always has the producer as the base. Pyramid of numbers have more producers at the bottom than consumers at the top.The similarities are that they both are models and they both have the same organisms. They both have top consumers and they both show how energy is passed down from organism to organism.
