Desert Food Web
My food web starts off with the sun, then the sun moves its energy to the (producer) cactus, the cactus gets eaten by (primary consumers) insects, small lizards or kangaroo rats. Then after, the insects get eaten by (secondary consumers) scorpions and larger lizards. The small lizards get eaten by the big lizards, and the kangaroo rat either goes to a snake, desert fox or hawk. The large lizards get eaten by (tertiary consumer) Hawks or desert foxes, the same with snakes. Then it all comes down to the bacteria and fungi to decompose.
Symbiotic Relationships
Commensalism
The hole is benefitting the lizard but the ground is being unaffected.
Mutualism
The crocodile's mouth is being cleaned while the bird is getting food.
Parasitism
The bird is getting food, but harming the cactus by putting a hole in it.
