"Why do you think that there are rarely more than five links on a food chain?"

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that there are rarely more than five links since there usually aren't more than 5 different levels in the food chain as well as limiting factors.

# data[].attributes.body
There are limiting factors such as energy. Only 10 percent will move on to the next level.

# data[].attributes.body
A lot of energy is lost at each step.

# data[].attributes.body
Because everything is balanced and contained.

There are usually no more then five links in a single food chain. However, I believe there are many other parts however they are less complected.

There are usually only five links becuase they are the core parts of the food chain. I think they are many other parts but they are less important.There are usually only five links becuase they are the core parts of the food chain.

There are rarely more then five links because with the bigger animals would get bigger than the other animals.

This is because most animals can't out compete the native species because of their adaptations. Invasive animals are only present in some places, which creates more than five links on the food chain. Because the population of invasive species are low and can be controlled, there is not that many places with more than 5 links on the food chain. Also, the number of animals are controlled, so more animals cannot enter the food chain.

There aren't many links since many herbivores are needed to support only a few carnivores. There can't be too many links since the animals at the top won't get enough food.

There are rarely more than five links in the food chain since climate and other things may affect the outcome

The population would be to great to control. There would be to many complacations and not all prey and predator would have food.

# data[].attributes.body
There are only 5 links on the food chain because, if there are too many herbivores, there won't be enough vegetation and the herbivores might die of starvation which will effect the animals at the top because they have no more food to eat.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that there are rarely any more that five links on a food chain because the food may not contain or have any more nutrients in it to give the next predator any source of energy. This occurs because when an animal of food is eaten the energy gets passed on to the next predator that eats it. And so on and so on. The energy will keep on getting passed on until there is no more energy to even pass on anymore. This is why I think that there are rarely even more than five links in a food chain.

Thanks is because their would have to bigger animals to eat that animal.

The food chain is specifically meant for a certain amount of organisms from the most to the least. Also this is required for animals to live. Also each organism needs a certain amount of food to survive and the food chain all the animals depend on each other.

# data[].attributes.body
Food chains mainly have a few steps and are not written for many animals.

# data[].attributes.body
Many animals have a predator and it is rare that they don't have one, and it would cause an imbalance in the environment if there were more animals that could empower others. Not much energy passes through each level.

I think that there are not more than five links in the food chain because it will be a lot more harder to maintain the populations of each species. Also, the competition will increase in a short amount of time.

After decomposes take down the final dead organism, there is no more energy left to move on to another stage, the decomposes get the final amount of energy from the food chain.

I think that there are rarely more then five links in the food chain, because since the core parts of the food

other organism are consumers
