Arctic Tundra Animals Food Web

Below is my food web for the arctic tundra.
Arctic tundra animals food web. The polar bear is in most risk. Plants are devoured by herbivores and carnivores eat the animals that have eaten the plants. Arctic wolves, arctic foxes, and snowy owls are at the top of the food web as secondary consumers because they consume the primary consumers.
The herbivores, or primary consumers, include caribou, ermines, harlequin ducks, arctic hares, musk oxen, and lemmings. Snowy owls, arctic wolves, and polar bears eat the carnivores. Every organism in the arctic tundra is interdependent (they depend on each other).
People also love these ideas When the sea ice begins to melt every spring this is the signal for life to explode into action. Some of them are lapland longspur, mosquitoes, and snowy owl, also seals, sea lions, and killer whales.
The arctic fox (vulpes lagopus) is one of the most common arctic tundra animals. The arctic hare eats the arctic willow, which is also eaten by the lemming. It features producers, primary consumers, tertiary consumers and decomposers.
Few alpine animals, however, contributed directly to the evolution of arctic tundra species, because physical barriers prevented the migration of species and because alpine and arctic animals were specialized to their. In the arctic tundra, many types producers, including flowering plants, low shrubs, sedges, grasses, mosses and algae, use the sun’s energy during the process of photosynthesis. Mosquitoes, flies, moths, grasshoppers, arctic bumblebees, and other insects are at the bottom of the arctic food chain.
The animals after the plants are herbivores they eat plants, so that is where herbivores get their energy.the animals after the herbivores are the carnivores, and the carnivores only eat meat. This is exactly what c. The arctic azalea is an autotrophic plant and a producer.
