results and with the theory of evolution from lower forms it is fuel for all kinds of discrimination.
“Most animals are part of more than one food chain and eat more than one kind of food in order to meet their food and energy requirements. These interconnected food chains form a food web. This interdependence of the populations within a food chain helps to maintain the balance of plant and animal populations within a community. For example, when there are too many giraffes; there will be insufficient trees and shrubs for all of them to eat. Many giraffes will starve and die. Fewer giraffes means more time for the trees and shrubs to grow to maturity and multiply. Fewer giraffes also means less food is available for the lions to eat and some lions will starve to death. When there are fewer lions, the giraffe population will increase.” “Parenting the Next Generation” – A Christian Parenting Web Site. Copyright by Alan & Hui Meng
Take the example of a food chain in a Swedish lake. Osprey feed on northern pike, which in turn feed on perch which eat bleak that feed on freshwater shrimp. The primary producers of this food chain are probably phytoplankton. Food chains and food webs are representations of the predator-prey relationships between species within an ecosystem or habitat. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
In nearly all food chains, solar energy is utilized by “producers” through photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide and water are converted to sugars as a means of storing the solar energy. This energy is expended for growth and development. The plant sugars are polymerized for storage as long-chain carbohydrates, including other sugars, starch, and cellulose. Proteins can be
