Answers. 1  A food chain is the what animal eats what animal. It really should be called a food web because many animals eat many other animals. The food web is a representation of an energy pyramid. An energy pyramid just shows where the energy is going. The sun is at the bottom, then plants and so on. There really are not many differences between them.
A food web (or food cycle) is the natural interconnection of food chains and generally a graphical representation (usually an image) of what-eats-what in an ecological community. Another name for food web is a consumer-resource system.n the simplest scheme, the first trophic level (level 1) is plants, then herbivores (level 2), and then carnivores (level 3). The trophic level is equal to one more than the chain length, which is the number of links connecting to the base.
