Why is a food web a more realistic way of portraying an ecosystem than is a food chain?

food chains usually describe only one link/series of hunter and prey. food webs usually describe the hunter and prey system in a whole ecosystem. hope this helps!!

A food web shows multiple chains of different animals and shows how they relate. Food chain Los are much less detailed
