Energy flows up a food chain, from the primary producers to the primary consumers, to the secondary consumers, up to the tertiary and then quaternary consumers. Energy flows when one organism eats another.
The flow of energy in a food chain is the exact same thing as the flow of energy in the biosphere, just on a smaller scale. Food Chains--->Food Webs--->Communities--->Biomes--->Biospheres.
they eat each other but, it only gets half the energy stored
i am only a 5th grader and we just went over that and when a organisum eats a organisum then it gets energy from eating it
The energy is reduced in such a way that only 10% is passed to each level.
because it come from the sun and on

The transfer of energy and matter in a food chain is only 10% efficient because 90% doesn't get broken down or used while moving through the food chain.
It is called a food chain.

Yes. Food or fuel creates energy, energy is transferred through "nutritional" content. There are several different factors that control the primary productivity of energy and biomass flow. Energy flow is the amount of energy that moves through a food chain. The energy input, or energy that enters the ecosystem, is measured in Joules or calories. Accordingly, the energy flow is also called calorific flow. In the study of energy flow, ecologists try to quantify the importance of different species and feeding relationships. The largest source of energy for an ecosystem is the sun.Energy that is not used in an ecosystem is eventually lost as heat. Energy and nutrients are passed around through the food chain, when one organism eats another organism. Any energy remaining in a dead organism is consumed by decomposers. Nutrients can be cycled through an ecosystem but energy is simply lost over time.

Describe the one way path of energy though an ecosystem?
The primary energy sources of coal, natural gas, and petroleum oil.

The typical movement of energy through an ecosystem is upward. This means that food flows through the different animals that eat each other.
