Question
Dead body → Fungi Earthworm" what type of food chain is this?
Solution
This is a type of Detritus Food Chain. In this food chain, the energy flow begins from dead organic matter into microorganisms and then to detritus feeding organisms (detritivores) and their predators. The dead body represents the dead organic matter, fungi are the microorganisms that break down the dead matter, and earthworms are detritivores that consume the fungi.
