Food  web also include bacteria  and there microscopic organisms that brack down dead organisms  and waste material turning  them into chemicals that will be used as nutrients by other living  things. in the same way ocean organisms are joined together in food webs. The producers in the ocean are organisms to make food such as seagrass and  seaweed. Animals large and small  eat the producers and many of them become meals for predators.
