There are thousands of feedback loops possible in a food web of 20 species. Why? Well, on average, about 60% of the food we eat comes from carbohydrates. This process can be repeated multiple times, where positive feedback loops are counteracted by negative feedback loops. Upon reference to a food web of 20 species, thousands of feedback loops are possibly created through this process.
