What might happen to the organisms in the food web if the number of phytoplankton and vegetation drastically decreased?

Phytoplankton and vegetation are producers at the base of the food web. If their numbers drastically decreased, organisms that eat them would have less food, and that could then affect predators higher up the web. So the entire food web could be affected; the correct choice is “The entire food web would be affected.”
