(i) Food chain is a linkage of organisms within an

ecosystem, in which each link feeds on the one

(ii) Only the first link in the chain is a producer and

all the rest are consumers.

(iii) In the ecosystem, the energy is transferred from

one organism to another with food, in a definite

(iv) Initially, solar energy is absorbed by producers

and with the help of photosynthesis the food is

synthesized.

(v) Energy gets transferred from producers to

consumers of different levels.

(vi) Decomposers derive energy from dead organisms

by decomposition from all levels.

(viii) The flow of energy is unidirectional
