Food Chain

Some animals eat plants. Some animals eat other animals. The lives of these plants and animals are interconnected. They depend upon one another for survival. That's called the food chain. How do food chains work? How do different environments impact food chains? What happens to a food chain if one of its plants or animals disappears?
