Food Chains and Food Webs
Description
Using examples of food chains and food webs, describing the difference between producers and consumers, and illustrating the importance of scavengers and decomposers in maintaining a healthy ecosystem, this program explores the dynamic relationship between plants and animals in a shared ecosystem. The presenter-led, nature documentary-style video is also ideal for sparking classroom discussion on environmental issues such as climate change, deforestation, and species extinction.
