Food Chains and Food Webs

This particular beetle is very low on the food chain. It mainly eats vegetation and has a large number of predators.

Primary and Secondary consumers.

When the predator eats its prey, the prey population will go down because they're being eaten. Now there's is not enough prey because it has been eaten, there's nothing for the predator to eat. So, some die from startvation. Then the prey population increases because they are not being eaten, since the predators died of starvation. - Alexis (future vet!)

Animals, animals and plants, or plants number among the prey that New Zealand leaf bugs eat. The selection reflects the different feeding priorities of different species. The term New Zealand leaf bug will be interchangeable with New Zealand true plant bug even though, regardless of terminology, the Heteroptera insect order member showcases species-specific carnivorous, herbivorous or omnivorous diets.

Food webs on land and in the water are the same because they both have producers, consumers and decomposers.

because it has different food chains in it

Food "chains" have sort of become obsolete. When I first learned about them I was in elementary school and by the time I got to high school they had stopped studying food chains and moved on to food webs. I was first taught about food chains using a "field" environment. The sun makes the grass grow, the grass gets eaten by a grasshopper, the grasshopper gets eaten by a mouse, the mouse gets eaten by a hawk. But now they teach about food webs. The sun makes the grass grow, the grass could be eaten by a grasshopper or something else, then the grasshopper gets eaten by a rat, mouse, or maybe it becomes your kittens new play toy, the rat or mouse could be eaten by a hawk or any other type of bird that eats those kind of critters. It's all connected now unlike it just being a straight line like it was when I was in elementary school.

they eat dead bodies which will make the earth free of dead bodies. this way make them important. if they were not there the earth would stink. rembember one thing one day u will also b eaten by a scavenger.

The Tyrannosaurus rex lived in Western North America from Canada to Texas between 68 and 65.5 million years ago. In the northern part of their range, prey would have included Edmontosaurus and Triceratops, and perhaps smaller dinosaurs such as Pachycephalosaurus and Ornithomimus on occasion. In the southern area, they would have hunted Edmontosaurus, Torosaurus, and potentially even the sauropod Alamosaurus. Their prey ate plants such as conifers, ferns and potentially some early flowering plants.

The animal usually eats vole,elk,deer,moose,sheep,goats,caribou,muskox,bison and fish(sometimes). Those listed animals are herbivores.

because through each animal in the food chain at least 90% of the energy is lost through, eating, running, sleeping getting away from predators etc Because of trophic efficiency, only 10 percent of the energy of the previous level (or "link" as you say) makes it to the next level

Fruit flies are on the bottom of a food chain because they are not predatory. Fruit flies feed on crops and are eaten by small animals.

Trying to figure this out too!! All I know is that it's a primary consumer, meaning it eats producers.

Autotrophs are also called producers. They produse food not only for themselves but for all other living things as well.

the food chain for a chip. is

grass-->chipmunk-->snake--> hawks

a food chain starting from the producers ;)

Phytoplankton or aquatic vergetation

The majority of producers (eg green plants) rely on the sun's energy to produce food. Primary consumers eat plants so in an indirect way the consumers are also relying on the sun's energy for their food

They have the consumer part in the food web
