Food chain and Food web
--------------> Every living biological unit obtains food from other biological unit. Food chain is a sequence of biological community in which one obtains food from another. As for example, plants and trees are primary producers. 🐄 Cows , 🐃 buffaloes , goats and deers eat plant and grass. But carnivorous animals like lion, 🐅 tiger etc. Eat 🐐 goat, deers, cows etc. This means there is a sequence or food chain ad shown below :
Plant 🌲 trees
Grass -----------------> 🐄 Cows,
( Primary producers ) Buffaloes,
Deers
🐐 goats
( Herbivorous animals )

V
🦁 lions, Tigers,
Leopards
( Carnivorous animals )
From above sequence of food chain, we can see plants, Tree and grass are primary producers which prepares food with the help of the sun light. Cows, buffaloes, deers and goats are come in second sequence of food chain as They obtain food From plants, 🌲 trees and grass. Lions, tiger and leopards come in third sequence of food chain. They obtains food from eating 🐄 Cows, buffaloes and deers.

| Food chain and Food web |
---------->Number of food chains make food webs. But food chain and Food web are principally same.
Different kind of Ecosystem have different types of food chains and food web. As for example, let us see sea water ecosystem. Seaweeds are primary producers in the sea.
Small 🐟 Fishes obtain food by eating seaweeds. Big 🐟 Fishes obtain food by eating these small Fishes. Hence sea weeds are primary producers which produce food with the help of sunlight by photosynthesis process.
======== This is called Marine Food chain.
