Key Points

  • The food chain is a sequence of transfers of matter and energy in the form of food from organism to organism.
  • A food chain shows how organisms are related to each other by the food they eat.
  • Food chains intervene locally into a food web because most organisms consume more than one type of animal or plant.
  • An example of a food chain is insects- frogs-snakes-hawks.
  • In the above example, insects are the food of frogs, frogs are eaten by snakes and snakes are further the food of hawks.

 Thus, we can say that the correct order for food chain is A (insects)- D (frogs)- C (snakes)- B (hawks).
