The Food Chain

The Food Chain is an important part of our ecosystem. It helps explain how living things interact. To learn what the Food Chain is and how it works we will look at an online source. Visit the website: http://www.planetpals.com/foodchain.html and learn about the Food Chain.

Answer the following questions after reviewing the information on the website:

1. What is the Food Chain?

2. List the five categories of the Food Chain.

3. Scroll down to the chart at the bottom of the page. Review the chart and think about what living things belong in each category of the Food Chain. List two things for each of the five categories.

Write your answers in the space provided above after each question. If you have any questions about the Food Chain write them in the space below. We will review your questions during our next class.
