Answer: Anterior cruciate ligament

Explanation:The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) connects the front of the tibia to the back of the femur. It keeps the tibia from sliding forward and limits its rotation. The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) keeps the tibia from sliding backward. The patella ligament helps secure the patella over the front of the knee joint.

------------------  

food web:the interconnected feeding relationships in an ecosystem. These relationships can be complex; some organisms may feed on more than one trophic level, or changes may occur depending on a species' life history stages or the availability of food.
