Question

Identify the correct type of food chain

• A. Grazing food chain
• B. Detrital food chain
• C. Decomposer food chain
• D. Predator food chain

Answer 1

The correct option is B Detrital food chain

Organic remains (dead plant parts, animal remains and excretions) are also called detritus. A food chain, which begins with a dead or organic matter is called detritus food chain. The energy passes into decomposers and detrivores, then to smaller carnivores, then to larger carnivores and so on.
