Answer 2

ANSWER:

• Sunlight $\rightarrow$ Algae $\rightarrow$ Mosquito larvae $\rightarrow$ Fish
• Plants $\rightarrow$ Grasshopper $\rightarrow$ Frog $\rightarrow$ Egret
• Bacteria $\rightarrow$ Crayfish $\rightarrow$ Turtle

EXPLANATION:

• In the 1st food chain, algae absorbs sunlight and grows, which is then ingested by mosquito larvae and then further eaten up by fish ending the food chain.
• In the 2nd food chain, plants are eaten up by grasshopper and the grasshopper is then consumed by frogs and frogs are eaten by egret.
• In 3rd food chain, bacteria suspended in soil is eaten up by crayfish and then crayfish is eaten by turtles.
