| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Food chains and food webs are representations of the predator-prey relationships between species within an ecosystem or habitat. Many chain and web models can be applicable depending on habitat or environmental factors. Every known food chain has a base made of autotrophs, that is, organisms able to manufacture their own food. This book studies food chains including herbivore, predation, ecological efficiency, intertidal ecosystem, and soil food web.
