Question

Complete the following food chains with appropriate links.
a) Grass $\to$ Grasshopper $\to$ ______ $\to$ Snake
b) Grains $\to$ Mouse $\to$ ______

Answer 1

Food chain is the flow of energy from one trophic level to another. This flow of energy occurs as one organism depends on other organism for food. Flow of energy is unidirectional and it follows the particular series of:

Producers $\to$ Primary consumers $\to$ Secondary consumers $\to$ Tertiary consumers $\to$ Decomposers.

So, the links in given food chain will be:

a) Frog

b) Cat
