Answer:
When one thing dies, or is taken away from the food web, then this could happen:
Let's say plants are taken away. Then, herbivores have nothing to eat, sot hey die. Then, carnivores have nothing to eat, and the same thing happens, etc.
Plants are the base of survival for every organism in nearly every ecosystem.
As long as you are referring to the green plants aka producers of the food chain/web.
