Chapter 24.2, Problem 1CYP
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
Difference between a grazing food web and a detrital food web with example of each
Introduction:
Food chain: Linear sequence of transfer of nutrient and energy in the form of food from the organism of one trophic level to the organism of another trophic level
Food web: Non-linear web of interlinked food chain. It provides the complex network in which one organism has alternate food sources.

Producers should form the bottom of the web, with primary consumers and secondary consumers in the middle of the web, and tertiary consumers at the top of the web. Detritivores can be found throughout the web. Draw lines between the organisms that directly interact with each other. Organisms may have more than one line drawn from them or to them. In your model, include the sun, and illustrate how heat is lost as energy transfers from one trophic level to the next.
