Food Chain and Food Web

 What is Food Chain?

All living things need food to give them the energy to grow and move. A food chain shows how each living thing gets its food. It shows who is eating who. The arrow means "is eaten by". 





 

What is Food Web?



A food web consists of many food chains.  It shows the many different paths plants and animals are connected. Eg: A hawk might also eat a mouse, a squirrel, a frog or some other animal. The snake may eat a beetle, a caterpillar, or some other animal. And so on for all the other animals in the food chain.
