Food Web Project 
Food Web Project
Create a food web consisting of organisms found in an aquatic ecosystem. Name organisms, identify abiotic and biotic factors, show the flow of energy in the food web, classify organisms as producer, consumer (primary, secondary, or tertiary), detritivore or decomposer; and indicate impact in that community of removing one species. Label three to five interspecific interactions that occur in within web. Predict with justification what might happen if a component in the food web changes.
