Creating a food web
Food chains are simple models that show only a single set of energy-transfer relationships, but many organisms obtain energy from many different sources and in turn may provide energy to several different consumers. A food web illustrates all these interactions and is a more accurate model of how energy moves through an ecological community.
Starting with your original food chain, add another plant and four more animal cards to construct a food web that shows how energy flows from producers through primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers, and possibly a quaternary consumer. When making your food web, you can have more than one arrow leading to and from each organism. Draw a version of your food web below.
