69. Students created food chains to learn how energy flows
through an ecosystem. After completing several chains,
students noticed some of the same animals appeared on
several food chains. The students concluded that within an
ecosystem, food chains combine to create food webs. Did the
students reach a logical conclusion?
A. No, because most animals only eat one type of food.
B. Yes, because most living things consume a variety of foods in
order to survive.
C. No, because producers make their own food.
D. Yes, because food chains and food webs are the same.
