• The sequence of living organisms in a community through which nutrients and energy pass as one organism eats another is called a food chain.
• It starts with energy from the Sun which is taken by autotrophs (producers) who can prepare their own food.
• Primary consumers are herbivores and they feed on plants. Eg. Grasshopper. Secondary consumers are organisms that feed on primary consumers. Tertiary consumers feed on primary or secondary consumers.
