A pyramid is a good shape for a food web because it visually represents the flow of energy in an ecosystem. It shows the hierarchical structure of trophic levels, with each level consuming the lower levels, thus representing the energy transfer and loss between organisms. This shape helps to demonstrate the relationship between producers, consumers, and decomposers in an ecosystem.
a food web shows what animals eat others. a energy pyramid shows all animals that eat the same thing.
An energy pyramid represents the amount of energy available at each level of a food web. It shows how energy is transferred between trophic levels, with each level containing less energy than the one below it. This is due to the loss of energy as heat through respiration and other metabolic processes.
The very best for a COMPLETE system would be a rain forest.
The energy pyramid is more like a food chain type. It shows one spesific path as opposed to many paths. *I have to disagree with the above. A well drawn pyramid will show many producers, first level and above consumers in an ecosystem. Therefore it is more like a food web.

to make a model of a food pyramid take a cardboard and cut it in 3 triangles and then make a triangle shape with those triangles,then go to the web and search pic of foodpyramid
a food web shows what animals eat others. a energy pyramid shows all animals that eat the same thing.
they both have connections. such as the food web is one "item" connecting to another. a food pyramid is going up and as it goes up there are still connections.
A Tundra Food Web is very similar to the food pyramid we all know except it is composed of wild animals and plants. A little research as to what animals prey on can help make a very good TFW.
The Food & Drug Administration has recently changed to food pyramid. For a visual picture, as well as a comprehensive explanation on how to use the pyramid, go to their web site at http://www.choosemyplate.gov/

The USDA sets the standards of the food pyramid and has edited it a few times since its inception. The best place for you to learn about the food pyramid would be at the USDA web site.
