Expert Solution
Step 1

The food we eat can be transferred in the form of energy from one organism to another through the food chain process. All living things in any ecosystem are linked in a systematic fashion based on their style of sustenance. These interactions allow energy to travel from one ecosystem component to the next. "The sequential interlinking of species that entails the passage of food energy via a sequence of organisms by eating and being eaten" is how the food chain is defined.
