Linked from
The 79 pages that link to Food web, each with the reason it gives.
PhotosynthesisRelated: Photosynthetic organisms provide organic matter that supports most food webs.
InsectRelated: Insects serve as prey, predators, herbivores, and decomposers in many food webs.
OmnivoryRelated: Omnivores connect plant-based and animal-based pathways in food webs.
Plastic pollutionRelated: Plastic particles and associated chemicals can move among organisms through feeding, with consequences that depend on context.
InsectivoryRelated: Insectivores connect arthropod populations to predators and other consumers.
EcologyRelated: It maps how energy and matter pass through interacting species.
Primary productionRelated: Primary production supplies the organic energy that supports food webs.
Harmful algal bloomRelated: Bloom toxins and biomass shifts can propagate through aquatic food webs.
Persistent organic pollutantRelated: Food-web transfers help explain how persistent chemicals move from contaminated environments into predators.
EcosystemRelated: Food webs show how energy and nutrients move among an ecosystem’s organisms.
AnimalRelated: Animals occupy consumer roles that link producers, prey, and predators.
Fish stockingRelated: New fish can consume native species or compete with them for prey.
KleptoparasitismRelated: Theft redirects energy among consumers without necessarily changing who captured the food.
PiscivoryRelated: Piscivores connect fish populations to their predators and other food-web pathways.
AntRelated: Ants act as predators, prey, scavengers, and seed dispersers within food webs.
Insect declineRelated: Insects are prey and consumers, so population changes can propagate through ecological networks.
Aquatic insectRelated: Aquatic insects consume algae and detritus, then feed fish and terrestrial predators.
EntomologyRelated: Insects connect plants, predators, parasites, and decomposers in food webs.
Freshwater habitatRelated: Energy and nutrients pass among producers, consumers, and decomposers in freshwater.
HexapodaRelated: Hexapods serve as predators, herbivores, parasites, and prey in terrestrial food webs.
PlantRelated: Plant production supplies energy to herbivores and indirectly to higher consumers.
Benthic feedingRelated: Benthic feeding links bottom-dwelling consumers to prey and organic matter.
BiosphereRelated: Food webs transfer energy and nutrients through biospheric communities.
Deciduous treeRelated: Leaf fall supplies detritus that supports decomposers and organisms that feed on them.
Food cachingRelated: Caching and cache theft redistribute resources among competitors and affect seed-eating relationships.
Marine ecologyRelated: Food webs trace how energy and nutrients move among marine species.
Trophic ecologyRelated: Food webs map the interconnected feeding relationships trophic ecology investigates.
Wildlife disease ecologyRelated: Predation and species interactions can alter host abundance and pathogen transmission.
Community (ecology)Related: Food webs represent one major subset of interactions within a community.
Sea lampreyRelated: By killing or weakening large fish, sea lampreys altered predator-prey relationships in the lakes.
American shadRelated: Shad serve as prey for predators in rivers and coastal waters.
Feeding ecologyRelated: Food webs show how animal diets connect species.
African fish eagleRelated: The eagle is a predator and scavenger linking aquatic prey to larger consumers.
Bearded vultureRelated: The bird’s specialized feeding links carcasses and bone resources to a distinct consumer.
HypercarnivoreRelated: Hyper carnivores can shape food-web structure through their consumption of animal prey.
Long-tailed weaselRelated: The weasel links small-mammal populations to larger predators that eat it.
Parasite ecologyRelated: Parasites add links to food webs and can redirect energy among hosts and consumers.
WildlifeRelated: Wildlife species depend on prey, plants, and competitors within connected food webs.
LimpkinRelated: The limpkin links freshwater snails to the predators that feed on birds.
NematomorphaRelated: Nematomorph emergence can transfer host-derived energy from land into water.
Theoretical ecologyRelated: Food-web models trace how interaction structure shapes stability and energy flow.
Black swallowerRelated: The black swallower links midwater predators to prey that may be much larger than expected.
Crangon crangonRelated: This shrimp both consumes small seabed organisms and serves as prey for larger animals.
HypocarnivoreRelated: Low meat consumption shapes a hypocarnivore's links to plants and prey.
Leaf beetleRelated: Leaf beetles connect host plants to predators, parasitoids, and other consumers.
Wildlife ecologyRelated: Food webs represent how wildlife species exchange energy through feeding.
