The arrows represent the flow of energy.
The arrows in a food chain indicate the direction of energy flow from organism to organism.
This also applies to a food chain - The arrows in a food web represent the flow of energy through the web, further along the arrows/web means that less energy is moving along. The energy flows through arrow to the next consumer, the energy moving through the arrows have less and less energy as the web moves on. To put it in (much) simpler terms, the thing its pointing to eats the other thing.

The arrows represent the Energy flow from one level of ecosystem to another level. The arrow represents the energy transfer from one organism to another. Ex. Grass----> Rabbits----> Snakes You can also think of it as: Ex. Grass (are eaten by) Rabbits (are eaten by) Snakes
no because the arrows in a food web/chain mean 'is eaten by' because a worm is eaten by a pidgeon.
