Key Stage 4
Meaning
A food web is a diagram which shows the feeding relationship between many organisms in a community.
About Food Webs
- Food webs always begin with the first trophic level (a producer).
- The arrows in a food web always show the direction of energy transfer between the trophic levels.

| This a food web has trees, grass and bushes as producers at the bottom and Lions and Vultures as the top carnivores. |
|
| This a food web has seaweed and phytoplankton as producers at the bottom and Blue Whales and Killer Whales as the top carnivores. |
