MARINE FOOD WEB

                              the marine food web is made up of all organisms living under the ocean.

     



   In this food web I was an anchovy. a lot of other organisms ate me. if I went extinct I many things would starve and die off but other had other food supplies. almost everything I ate was bacteria. animals usually eat more than one food source but sharks ate almost everything and only some whales would eat sharks.
