Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Energy and matter cycle through a beach ecosystem on the Gulf of Mexico. Identify one kind of model you can use to show the path of energy and matter through this ecosystem. Describe one benefit of using that kind of model to show those processes.
Food web; shows energy available at each trophic level for the next group of organisms
Energy pyramid; show all pathways of energy flow in an ecosystem
Food chain; shows a single pathway of energy flowing, making it easy to see which organisms are primary, secondary and tertiary consumers
Answer:
Food chain; shows a single pathway of energy flowing, making it easy to see which organisms are primary, secondary and tertiary consumers
Explanation:
The food chain represents a linear sequence of energy transfer within an environment. This transfer is carried out with a sequence of living beings that serve as food for each other and this food that promotes the transfer of energy through a single path, allowing all levels of transmission to be observed, through primary, secondary and tertiary.
