Solution:

The transfer of food energy from producers to consumers through a series of organisms with repeated eating and being eaten is known as food chain. Green plants are always the first link of food chain because they alone are capable of synthesizing organic food by using light energy by photosynthesis. The logical sequence of a food chain is : Producer >> Consumers >> Decomposer Small plants Zooplanktons >> Fish >> Man (Primary (Primary (Secondary (Tertiary producer) consumer) consumer) consumer)
