- The food chain describes who eats whom in the wild. Every living thing—from one-celled algae to giant blue whale s—needs food to survive. Each food chain is a possible pathway that energy and nutrient s can follow through the ecosystem. For example, grass produces its own food from sunlight.

- A food chain shows how each living thing gets food, and how nutrients and energy are passed from creature to creature. Food chains begin with plant-life, and end with animal-life. Some animals eat plants, some animals eat other animals. A simple food chain could start with grass, which is eaten by rabbits.
- To understand how plants and animals interact, scientists make diagrams called food chains. A food chain shows a sequence of living things in which one organism eats the one below it. Most animals eat more than one thing, so to show ALL the feeding relationships, we use food webs which are made of many intersecting food chains.
