Which of the following represents organisms in a food chain? 1. hawks, owls, eagles 2. deer, rabbits, cows 3. seeds, mice, snakes 4. hyenas, vultures, crows

The correct option will be option 3 (seeds, mice, snakes).

Explanation:

Food chain is a hierarchical series of organisms starting from producer organisms to carniovre species, each representing a different trophic level , linked to one another by the food they eat.

Sequence of food chain is as :

                              Tertiary consumers (top carnivores-eat carnivores )

                                                  ↑

                              Secondary consumers (carnivores-eat herbivores)

                                                  ↑

                              Primary consumers (herbivores-eat plants)

                                                  ↑

                             Primary producers (photosynthetic organisms)

In food chain of seeds, mice, snakes :

                                           snakes (carnivore-eat mice)

                                                      ↑

                                            mice (herbivore-eat seeds)

                                                       ↑

                                           seeds (photosynthetic plant part)

Thus, option 3- seeds, mice, snakes is the correct answer.
