Energy flow in Ecosystem :
Energy can neither be created nor it can be destroyed , Also it passes from one phase to another between livings
✓Our ecosystem is maintained by the cycling energy and nutrients obtained from different external sources.
Hope it helps ❣️
Answer:
energy can not be created nor destroyed
Explanation:
1 the green plant in a terrestrial ecosystem capture about 1% of the energy of Sunlight that falls on their leaves and convert it into food energy
2 when green plants are eaten by primary consumer a great deal of energy is lost as a heat to the environment some amount goes into digestion and in doing work and the rest goes towards growth and reproduction an average of 10% of the food eaten in turned into its own body and made available for the next level of consumer
3 therefore 10% can be taken as the average value for the amount of organic matter that is present at each step and reached the next level of consumer
4 since two little energy is available for the next level of consumers food chains generally consists of only three or four steps the loss of energy at each step is so great that very little usable energy remains after four trophic level
5 there originally a greater number of individuals at the lower trophic level of an ecosystem the greatest number is of the producers
6 the length of complexity of food chain very greatly organism is journal attained by two or more other kinds of organisms which is done at 10 by several other organism so instead of the straight line food chain the relationship can be shown as a series of branching lines called a food web
