Explanation:
In a food chain, each organism occupies a different trophic level, defined by how many energy transfers separate it from the basic input of the chain. Food webs consist of many interconnected food chains and are more realistic representation of consumption relationships in ecosystems.

Answer:
A food chain only follows just one path as animals find food. eg: A hawk eats a snake, which has eaten a frog, which has eaten a grasshopper, which has eaten grass. A food web shows the many different paths plants and animals are connected. ... And so on for all the other animals in the food chain.
The Food Web shows more of the interactions between the organisms of the ecosystem and the trophic levels included from Producers to Primary/Secondary Consumers up through the Tertiary Consumers. While a food Chain is more of a linear representation of a specific line of interaction within the greater Food Web.Feb 11, 2017
