A food chain

shows the flow of

energy between

the organisms in

environment.

Food Web

Food web is put many food chain in one ecosystem.

Population Impact in The Food Web

(-) Producers (-) Primary Consumers

(-) Primary Consumers

(+) Producer and (-) Secondary

Consumer

Bioaccumulation

The buildup of toxins in

top consumers after

eating many smaller

organisms in a food

web.

Impact of Bioaccumulation in The Food Web

Toxin (toxic) might cause problems with the

functions of an organism.

- Impairs reproduction

- Kills off members of species

- Prevent organisms from reproduction

In the food web will :

(-) Top consumers

(+) Low level consumers

Manage Balance Population in Ecosystem

- Keep the existance the habitat of organisms living.
