Where in the food chain are crabs?
Of course! Any animal or living thing is important in the food chain! Even plants are because they produce off the sun. The crab eats the plants on the ocean floor right? So of course they are.
Why are ecological pyramids shaped like pyramids?
The energy pyramid is shaped like a triangle to show how not all the energy of one organism transfers to the next level. The triangle decreases in size going up as does the amount of energy transferred. A graphical model that is shaped like a pyramid to show how the energy flows through a food chain, how the amount of energy is decreasing and becoming less available for organisms as it enters each trophic level, and how much of the energy in the ecosystem is lost to the atmosphere as heat.
Where are iguana's on the food web?
In a normal food chain, iguana acts a second level consumer.
The chain will be as follows:
Grass --> Insects --> Iguana --> Birds
What living things does the snake eat in food web?
Rattlesnake are Carnivores. They consume Mice, Rats, Small Birds and other small rodents that inhabit the habitats they live in. They play an important ecological role by limiting the size of rodent populations in their ecosystems. Rattlesnakes lay motionless for their prey and kill it quickly with a venomous bite. Even if the prey is lucky enough to run off, it will die soon and the Rattlesnake will follow the scent and then swallow it. They are on top of their food chain, but they have some animals like the King Snake on top of it.
I can state with certainty that wild snake will eat carrion. I can't vouch for how common this is but I can say that the three metre wild carpet snake I have living on my property regularly eats the dead mice I leave out for it. Initially, when I noticed the dead mice I had trapped and thrown away into the garden disappearing, I assumed a fox or local cat had been picking them up at night. But then I saw a three metre carpet snake, that has been living around the property for a number of years, slither up and eat one! I put another dead mouse close to the snake whilst it was resting after eating a large possum, and it awoke from its slumbers, consumed the mouse and returned to its rest!
So although I don't know how common this is, I can tell you that wild snakes will certainly eat carrion.
What the flow of energy through a simple food chain that ends with a lion as the final consumer?
The Lion food Chain consists of, the sun grass, wildebeest and ends with the lion.
What is the connection between food chains and trophic levels?
A group of organisms that occupy the same position in a food chain.
What level in the food chain has the highest energy?
The level in a food web with the highest amount of total available energy is the producer. The producer is a photosynthetic organism that can harness the energy from light that generally comes from the sun. As the energy is passed from trophic level to trophic level, only about 10-20% of the energy is passed on, while the rest is lost as heat. For instance, if a producer had a total energy amount of 60 kj/m2yr, then the primary consumer would only be able to gain 6-12 kj/m2yr.

What position of the food chain is a snake?
Snakes are very varied and can prey upon small animals such as mice, birds and frogs or in some cases animals as large as small antelope (dog sized). There are animals that prey upon snakes such as eagles.
What food chain does the bobcat belong to?
They are the top predators in many places without cougers and wolves.
The food a butterfly eats depends on the life cycle stage. Its food chain is short because a butterfly feed from different plants. The chain is only one or two steps.
