What are marine food webs?

Marine food webs are complex networks of interactions between marine organisms, showing how energy and nutrients flow through ecosystems.

Can you explain the different levels in a marine food web?

Sure! Marine food webs typically include producers like phytoplankton, primary consumers like zooplankton, secondary consumers like small fish, and top predators like sharks.

How do human activities impact marine food webs?

Human activities such as overfishing, pollution, and climate change can disrupt these webs, leading to imbalances and loss of biodiversity.

What role do decomposers play in marine food webs?

Decomposers, like bacteria and fungi, break down dead organic matter, recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem, which supports producers.
