A food chain represents one possible pathway that energy and matter can take in an ecosystem. A food web contains multiple, interconnected food chains.

A food chain is a linear sequence of organisms, where each organism is eaten by the next organism in the chain. A food web, on the other hand, is a more complex network of interconnected food chains within an ecosystem, showing the relationships between various organisms and the multiple pathways energy and matter can take.
