How are food webs on land and in the water different?

Food webs on land typically have a more complex structure with more levels of consumers compared to those in water. On land, primary producers are mostly plants, while in water, phytoplankton are a major source of primary production. Additionally, terrestrial food webs have more diverse animal species due to the higher availability of resources on land.
