Detailed explanation-1: -A food chain describes how energy and nutrients move through an ecosystem. At the basic level there are plants that produce the energy, then it moves up to higher-level organisms like herbivores. After that when carnivores eat the herbivores, energy is transferred from one to the other.

Detailed explanation-2: -The sequence of transfer of matter and energy in the form of food from one organism to the other is called a food web.

Detailed explanation-3: -Energy is transferred between organisms in food webs from producers to consumers. The energy is used by organisms to carry out complex tasks. The vast majority of energy that exists in food webs originates from the sun and is converted (transformed) into chemical energy by the process of photosynthesis in plants.

Detailed explanation-4: -The food chain describes who eats whom in the wild. Every living thing-from one-celled algae to giant blue whales-needs food to survive. Each food chain is a possible pathway that energy and nutrients can follow through the ecosystem. For example, grass produces its own food from sunlight. A rabbit eats the grass.

Detailed explanation-5: -Answer: in food chain energy transfer from one organism to others is called trophic levels. Explanation: hope it helps u.
