More about the food chain

We need to clarify our previous post because we have learned more about the food chain.

The food chain has four parts as a pyramid.  The first level is the producers.  The second level is herbivores.  The third level is carnivores.  The final level is decomposers.  Decomposers are bacteria, fungus and worms.  When an animal eats part of a plant and leaves some, the decomposers break down the rest of the plant and make it into soil.

We learned that if part of the chain breaks, it affects the entire chain.
