Which of the following is not correct for food web?
Correct answer: A. Start with primary consumers
- A. Start with primary consumers
- B. Formed from food chain
- C. Stable than food chain
- D. Complex than food chain
Explanation
A food web is a graphical representation of interconnected food chains. It shows the feeding relationships and energy flow between different organisms in an ecosystem. A food web starts with primary producers, such as plants, which are then consumed by primary consumers, such as herbivores. The primary consumers are then consumed by secondary consumers, such as carnivores, and so on. Therefore, the statement "Start with primary consumers" is not correct for a food web.
