2 Minutes:
In a meadow ecosystem, hawks, grasshoppers, mice, snakes, and grass all play different roles in the food web. Grass produce food using sunlight and nutrients in the soil. Grasshoppers feed directly on grass. Mice eat both grass seeds and insects like grasshoppers. Snakes are carnivores that prey on mice. Hawks, the top predators in this system, hunt snakes and sometimes mice.
Create a food web that shows the feeding relationships among these five organisms.

IV. change in protein
Correct order: III, II, I, IV
III. change in DNA
II. change in mRNA
I. change in amino acid
IV. change in protein
