Marine Food Web - Group Project Food Web Project Create a food web consisting of organisms found in a marine ecosystem. Name organisms, show the flow of energy in the food web, classify organisms as producer, consumer (primary, secondary, or tertiary), or decomposer; and indicate the impact in that community of removing one species. Label 18 specific interactions that occur within the web. Predict with justification what might happen if a component in the food web changes. Complete follow-up questions (handout).
