Answer 1

Organisms of a higher trophic level which feed on several types of organisms belonging to a number of lower trophic level form the food web.

Explanation:

Different organisms of lower trophic levels are generally eaten by one organism of a higher trophic level, which in turn is eaten by some other organism of a higher trophic level of the same food chain or another food chain. So, instead of a straight line food chain, the relationship can be shown as a series of branching lines called a food web.
