Ecosystem Research : Food Web 
Food Web Project
Create a food web consisting of organisms found in a specific ecosystem. Name organisms, show the flow of energy in the food web, classify organisms as producer, consumer (primary, or secondary), and indicate impact in that community of removing one species. Label three to five interspecific interactions that occur in within web. Predict what might happen if a component in the food web changes.
