Plants are called Primary Producers \nbecause they produce food with the process of Photosynthesis. Herbivores eats these plants \nand hence called primary consumers. Caterpillar is an example of Herbivore. These caterpillars \nare consumed by Frogs which are called secondary consumers. And these frogs are consumed\nby snakes which are called Tertiary consumers. There are basically two types Food chains:- <br\/> (1) Grazing Food Chain. <br\/> (2) Detritus Food Chain. <br\/> Following image illustrates the sequence of Grazing Food Chain. <br\/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mehnatt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Food-chain.webp\" alt=\"Food Chain\" width=\"400\" height=\"500\" \/>  <\/p> \n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q3.

Primary Source of Energy. <br\/>\n<b>Explanation :<\/b> Primary source of Energy distinguished the Grazing Food Chain from the Detritus Food chain. In Grazing food chain, living plants\/biomass are the primary source of energy. In Detritus food chain, dead organic material is the primary source of energy. Secondary consumers (lizard, frogs) and Tertiary Consumers (Snakes, Eagle) can be same for both the Food chains. And both the Food chains are naturally present in the Ecosystem\/Environment. We have seen the example of Grazing Food chain in the above question.

Food chain provides alternative food for most of the organisms and hence increases the chance of survival. <br\/>\n<b>Explanation :<\/b> Food chain does not provide alternative food to the organism. If one organism is removed, then the immediate organism is badly affected in the food chain. There is a single path of transfer of food energy in the food chain, whereas there are multiple paths of transfer of food energy in Food web. Food web consists multiple food chains. Food web provides alternative food for most of the organisms and hence increases the chance of survival of an organism.   <\/p> \n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q5.
