The chain food is important, because it helps to pass enjoy from one living thing to another.
A Food chain can be defined as the feeding relationship between the different organisms that make up our ecosystem.
An ecosystem is a commune of living organisms. The ecosystem also includes the non-living components like, earth, water, fire, air and ether. The living and non-living together form the environment.
Within the environment, the living or the biotic components need food for survival. From the unicellular to the multicellular, from one-celled algae to giant blue whales, food is the universal need. Food in the form of energy is one common need and the most important requirement.
The method of procuring food follows a systematic series of interdependence where one particular run is dependent on another. The system thus formed, through successive runs constitute a food chain. In other words, the flow of energy from one species to another at various biotic levels forms a food chain.
Our environment is made up of multitude of organisms with their different levels of energy requirement. The food chain is a system used to transmit energy from one level to the next. A food chain basically displays the food procuring method and the energy requirement that are passed from creature to creature, a series of organisms each dependent on the next as a source of food.
The food chain depicts who is the predator and who is the prey in the wild. A link in a food chain is always food for the next creature in the chain. Grass produces its own food from sunlight. A herbivorous eats the grass, and is in turn consumed by a carnivorous. When this carnivorous dies it decays; broken down by bacteria, it returns to the soil.
A food chain always begins with a plant and end with an animal. This is because plants are producers; they produce their own food through the process of photosynthesis. Animals feed on plants and are consumers, because they cannot make their own food.
