Food Web Project

1. The produces in the food web are the Cactus Fruit and Flowering Plant.

2. The primary consumers in the food web are the Insects and Small Mammals.

3. The secondary consumers in the food web are the Scorpions, Rattle Snakes, and Lizards.

4. The food chain will be more affected if the farmer sprays insecticide on the insects. This is because there are exactly the same number of animals eaten by the insects as the Rattlesnakes but the only difference is that the insect gets eaten by lizards, Road Runners, Coyotes, and Scorpions. Only the Rattle Snake gets eaten by the Lizard, the coyote, the Road Runner, and the Eagles. The food chain will be more effected because if the Eagles didn't have anymore Rattle Snakes that won't effect the food chain because the Rattle Snake is the only thing that the Eagle eats.

5. If a plant produces a seed that sticks to a coyotes fur to get transported away that is called Mutualism. This is because non of the speicies was harme or injured during the process. The plant and the coyote will both benifit because the plant releases its seed and the coyote eats the plant.
