Prey & Predator
Prey
Are herbivores, might be carnivores or omnivores

Food Chain
-
Always start such a producer(plant): Plants change khing energy into chemical energy stored in the food they make. The energy stored in the food made by plants is passed on to the consumers that eat plants and then the energy stored in the plant eaters is passed on to their predators which are meat eaters
Are energy chains which show the transfer of energy between organisms. The energy passed on through a food chain comes from the Sun, the primary source of energy
Food Web
-
The food chains in a food web start with a producer. The energy transferred through a food web also comes from the sun
Organisms can belong to more than one food chain and can be eaten by more than one type of consumer.

Decomposers
-
Get their food by breaking down dead organisms and waste matter into simpler substances such as mineral salts and carbon dioxide through decomposition
-
Are very important to the environment as they ensure hat the Earth is not covered with dead organisms and waste matter and enrich the soil with nutrients needed by plants for plants to grow better
Detrivires helo decomposers by biting or breaking up dead organisms or waste matter into smaller pieces
