It basically gets transferred from plant, to animal, and so on.
Example:
A caterpillar eats a leaf. It gets eaten by a spider, who in turn gets eaten by a bird. The bird gets eaten by a fox, and the fox will eventually die. The decomposer (what ever it or they might be. Like a maggot.) breaks down the fox's carcase which then gives nutrients into the ground. Then, plants can use the nutrients to grow. The cycle then starts over again.

∙ 14y agoEnergy gets lower and lower as the food chain goes along. The sun gives off energy for the producer (plants) to absorb. The plant uses some of that energy to perform photosynthesis and then stores the rest. The energy that is stored is the energy that is given off to the next level. More and more energy is given off rather than stored as the food chain moves along. Therefore, there won't be a lot of energy left for the next level if there is not a lot stored.

∙ 13y agoWhen an organism consumes another organism, energy travels. When a plant or animal dies, its nutrients are stored in the soil. The plants that grow in the soil uses those nutrients to grow. The plant is then eaten by an herbivore (plant eater) animal. The herbivore uses the plant's nutrients to live and grow. The herbivore is eaten by a carnivore (meat eater). The carnivore uses the herbivore's nutrients to live and grow. When it dies, it's nutrients are stored in the soil again, so the whole sequence starts again.
It gets more complicated than this, but this is the simple version.

What are two processes of erosion found in rivers?
The two erosional processes found in rivers are mainly attrition and vertical hydraulic action. Attrition is where the moving river water dislodges materials like rocks on the sides of the river and carries them with the flow. Vertical hydraulic action is where moving water removes materials from the riverbed and carry it with the flow. This causes less resistant rocks to be eroded and thus forming a plunge pool, or waterfall.
In the US and Canada is the flow from pool returns clockwise or counter-clockwise?
If you have your left hand on the skimmer basket or the inlet side of the pump, and you have your right hand on the return side of the filter or the clean water going back to the pool then the flow will be clockwise.
Is there a difference between lava and lava flow?
Lava is molten rock at earth's surface, whether it is in a lava flow, a lava pool, or a lava dome. A lava flow is lava that is actively flowing downhill.
How are genes moved in and out of the gene pool?
Gene Flow and Genetic DriftGene Flow- transfer of genes from one population to another of the same speciesGenetic Drift- a change in the pool of genes of a small population that takes place by chanceAnd another possible answer could be breeding/mating
A thimbleful of water at 100c has a highrer temperature than a swimming pool full of water at 20c but the pool has more thermal energy than the timble explain?
To raise the temperature of water in a thimble of water from 0 to 100 requires a small amount of thermal energy. To do the same with a swimming pool would require putting a huge amount of thermal energy into the water comparatively speaking.
How does energy flow through food chains in the rock pool?
Energy and nutrients are passed from organism to organism, through the food chain as one organism, eats another.
How a barracuda moves?
When you turn your pump on, it creates a water flow in your pool. Barracuda's move around with the flow of water that is passed through the pool.
Can a pool pump burn out if no water is flowing through it?
Most pool pumps MUST have water flow to avoid overheating.
How do you flush out a laars xe pool heater if you don't seem to be getting a good flow through the heater?
The problem is not the heater. When was the last time that you cleaned the pool filter? Low or no water flow - no heat. Low flow = dirty filter or plugged pump or skimmer baskets. Ken
Can you have to much water in your pool?
Yes, the pool can over-flow.
What temp does pool pipes freeze?
Water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (which is 0 degrees Celsius). The factors which might change the temperature at which your pool pipes may freeze are: - other materials (such as salt) which are dissolved in the water - the rate of flow (if any) of the water through the pipes - the pipe diameter - the insulating properties of the pipes themselves - whether the pipes are buried underground Good luck with your pool!
Regarding water flow-should pool water go through the filter before it goes to the heat exchanger or should pool water go to the heat exchanger then through the filter before going back into the pool?
it goes ....pump, filter, heater, auto feeder, back to pool...this way the super chlorated water doesn't hurt the heat exchanger...
How did the increased movement of people on earth alter evolution?
It increased gene flow, which is the description given to alleles that enter the gene pool through migration.
How is tidal energy converted into electricity?
ONE WAY is to allow the lising tide to fill a pool, when the tide drops the flow of water turns a turbine. (Yes, you can do it both ways.)
What will happen if an above ground pool overflows due to rain?
The water will spill out through the skimmer, unless the skimmer it is blocked. Otherwise, it will spill over the top. It should not hurt the pool.
What is the movement of gene into and out of a gene pool called?
gene flow
Movement of genes into and out of a gene pool is called what?
gene flow
