Why can the removal of one important species affected entire ecosystem?

Because it acts in conjunction with the food chain, for example there is the sun, helps plants to photosynthesize and create food, then a grasshopper comes and eats the plant, then a bird eats the grasshopper, then a human shoots the bird and eats it. That is considered a food chain, and if one of those links disappears it would result in a food shortage for one of those species, thy would then die and so on and so forth.


What is most likely to occupy the second trophic level in a food chain a potato a worm that eats the potato a bird that eats the worm or the fox that eats the bird?

The second trophic level in a food chain is typically occupied by primary consumers, which are organisms that eat producers. In this case, the worm that eats the potato would be the primary consumer and thus occupy the second trophic level. The potato represents the first trophic level as a producer, while the bird and the fox occupy higher levels as secondary and tertiary consumers, respectively.

What is the scientific name for a food chain?

A food chain is a sequence of nourishment, from the organism upon which all others depend, the base of the food chain, which is almost always a green plant that creates it own food by means of photosynthesis, and then proceeds to the herbivore that eats the plant, and the carnivore that eats the herbivore, and any other creatures that are involved in this process, such as a larger carnivore that eats a smaller carnivore, etc. Food chains can be quite long. Think of the mosquito that drinks the blood of a human being who eats innumerable plants and animals that are grown and raised on farms. And then the dragonfly can eat that mosquito. And perhaps a bird will eat the dragonfly. And perhaps a fox will eat that bird. You see how complicated it can get.
