A food web is more realistic than a food chain for showing the feeding relationships in ecosystems because:



It compares the number of consumers to the number of microorganisms in an ecosystem

Food chains use only small animals.


Producers are usually eaten by many different consumers and consumers are eaten by more than one predator


a food web explains why there are more producers than consumers.

Answer 1

Answer:Food chains show just a single feeding pattern. Each organism has a single role in the ecosystem. Food chains make it easier to visualize trophic levels, or how energy moves through the ecosystem. ... This is why webs are considered to be more realistic than simple food chains.

Answer 2

There are more producers then consumers because if there was more consumers, over time there will be more food and the ecosystem will die because of hunger
