A food chain is a series of animals or other living things that are eatable. An example of a food chain is,a plankton being eaten by mussel, the mussel being eaten by small fish, the small fish being eaten by a bigger fish, and finally the big fish was eaten by a human. A food chain would usually end at the animal that is at the top of the food chain.Sometimes, the animal that starts the food chain can get the nutrients from the the last animal in the food chain(when it's dead).
Every animal lives off of another animal. Such sea creatures. They rely on plants under water (coral) or any other sea creatures. Same thing for land creatures. Although, some sea creature can eat land creatures.

Many animals are on different levels of eating. There are the omnivore, which eat both meat and vegetables. The carnivore, which eat meat only, and lastly the herbivores who eat only vegetables(which would be a vegetarian if it was a human).
