  1. grass-->rabbit--->fox  This is a food web.Now rabbit is also eaten an owl which is eaten by a fox. This will form a food web as an arrow will be drawn from rabbit to owl and owl to fox.


  2. Food chain:

    Remember the arrows show the direction that energy passes through the food chain.

    Food chains always start with a green plant (producer). Arrow then passes to primary consumer then secondary consumer and so on.

    Food web:

    Remember that, even though a species may be in several food chains, they only appear in a food web once.

    Write out all the animal and plant species  well spaced ou on a piece of paper.

    Then insert the arrows. When inserting the arrows think of the phrase "is eaten by" and this will ensure that the arrows point in the correct direction.

    Insert the arrows from each food chain crossing them over where several species eat the same food and the food web will be completed.

    Try making these three  food chains into a simple web to get you started.

    Grass .........>   Rabbit ...........>  Fox

    Lettuce .........>  Rabbit  ........>  Fox

    Lettuce ..........> Caterpillar  ............>  Thrush .........> Fox

    Hope this helps!
