Question

Which of the following best describes the fate of energy in ecosystems? a. It will ultimately be recycled back into the ecosystem. b. It flows from secondary consumers to primary consumers. c. It enters most ecosystems in the form of sunlight. d. It flows through and is used by ecosystems

Answer 1

I think its D because energy flows through ecosystems from sun to producers, consumers, decomposers, inorganic nutrient pool, then back to producers in a cycle 

Answer 2

Answer: Option D

Explanation: The energy in the ecosystem flows through the producers to consumers and then to decomposers. The decomposers adds the nutrients back into the soil.

The energy from the sun is absorbed by the producers that is used by them to make food by the process of photosynthesis.

The energy from the producers are transferred to the consumers and then from composers to the decomposers.

This is how the energy flows through the ecosystem.
