Answer 1

Food chains and webs not only describe the order in which organisms are eaten, but they also describe the animals that are all related. To exist with one another, organisms belonging to a same species either compete for the resources or divide it amongst themselves, where animals and plants of the same species co-exist and creates a beauty with nature.

Answer 2

Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is - Flow of energy in an ecosystem.

A food chain is a series of different trophic levels ( like producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers) in an ecosystem, which depicts how organisms obtain energy by consuming other organisms.

A food web is an interconnected network of different food chains representing flow of energy and matter within an ecosystem.

The different arrows in a food chain and food web represent organisms being eaten by other organisms, thereby representing flow of energy within an ecosystem.
