Answer 1

Answer: Sankey diagrams

Explanation:

Sankey diagrams summaries all the energy transfers taking place in a process. The thicker the line or arrow, the greater the amount of energy involved. This Sankey diagram for an electric lamp shows that most of the electrical energy is transferred as heat rather than light.

Answer 2

A diagram that shows the transfer of energy in one line is a food chain.

Explanation

ENERGY FLOW -

• Energy can neither be created nor be destroyed it can only be transformed from one form to another.
• This conversion of energy is known Conservation law of energy.
• The flow of energy in one line can be represented by a food chain.
• In the food chain, organisms are linearly sequenced based on the dependence of one organism on another.
• The energy is initially stored in producers that prepare food by the use of sunlight.
• Herbivores feed on energy and transfer it to the next tropic level, carnivores.
• Energy from carnivores is transferred to the top carnivores.
• At each trophic level, only 10% of energy is transferred by ENERGY LAW.
• Example -

                          Plants → Deer → Lion → Vulture
