Answer:
Removal of lions from the above food chain will increase the number of deer to such an extent that they will eat up the whole grass. The density of producer like grass will be very much reduced and this will turn the area into a desert.

- Deer are herbivores, meaning they feed on leaves and plants. Herbivores normally provide the middle link in a food chain. They gain energy from consuming grass or leaves, but are themselves a food source for predators. Traditionally in North America, white-tailed deer are eaten by wolves or cougars.
- In the savanna ecosystem, lions are at the top of the food chain. They eat the zebras, wildebeests, impalas, and other animals that in turn eat the grasses and shrubs. Although the idea of a food chain may seem simple enough, the relationship between predators and prey in an ecosystem can be complex.
In a food chain where a deer feeds on producers and lion feeds on the deer then, the deer is a first order consumer and the lion is a second order consumer, and as the lion feeds in the deer, lion is the predator and the deer is the prey.
