The Gulf of Mexico food web consists of various components, including primary producers like phytoplankton and sea grasses, which convert sunlight into energy. Primary consumers, such as zooplankton and small fish, feed on these producers, while secondary consumers include larger fish, crustaceans, and marine mammals that prey on them. Top predators, such as sharks and dolphins, sit at the apex of this web, regulating populations and maintaining ecological balance. Decomposers, like bacteria and fungi, play a crucial role in breaking down organic matter, recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem.
