    This document contains information about food chains and food webs, including: - An example food chain with producers, consumers, and trophic levels identified - Food chains combined to form a food web, with producers, consumers, and examples of predator-prey relationships listed - A sample food web is analyzed, with producers, consumers, trophic levels, and potential impacts of a population change identified - Food webs are explained as being more useful than food chains because they account for organisms having multiple food sources rather than a single linear pathway.

    useful.
    FOOD CHAINS ARE LINEAR, FOOD WEBS ARE A GROUP OF FOOD WEBS.
