First, energy from the sun is used to combine CO2 and water to make carbohydrates. The carbohydrates have stored energy that is released when the carbohydrates are broken down. When animals eat the plant and break down the carbohydrates, they receive energy. In turn, carnivores that eat those animals receive energy from the fats and proteins in their prey.
The sun's energy enters the biological world through photosynthesis. Plants capture sunlight and convert it into chemical energy in the form of glucose through this process. This energy is then transferred through the food chain as organisms consume plants or other organisms.
The primary source of energy in an ecosystem is the sun. Through the process of photosynthesis, plants and other photosynthetic organisms convert sunlight into chemical energy, in the form of glucose. This energy is then transferred through the food chain as organisms consume plants or other organisms for energy.
The ultimate source of energy in any ecosystem is the sun. Solar energy is converted into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis by plants, which then gets transferred through the food chain to all other organisms in the ecosystem.

Energy enters the ecosystem primarily from sunlight - which is used to power photosynthesis. Plants, in turn, become food for other living organisms such as bacteria, fungi, and animals. Once the energy is transferred from the sun to plants, it is mostly transferred between living organisms as "food". Some energy is also transferred from the sun to inorganic materials which are later taken up by living organisms for use in their metabolisms. An example would be the energy of the sun powering the weather that creates lightning, which converts some of the nitrogen of the atmosphere into nitrates which are absorbed by rain and deposited into the soil where they are absorbed by plants. Also energy is transferred from plants to oxygen consuming organisms when the plants produce oxygen through photosynthesis and then the oxygen is taken in by oxygen consuming organisms which use it in the oxidation of their food and expire carbon dioxide.

The sun transfer heat through radiationAnswer'Heat' is not transferred. Rather, 'heat' describes the process of transferring energy. So, your question should read, 'How does the sun transfer energy to earth?", and the answer is by radiation.
10% or the energy of THE SUN is transferred. 1 tertiary consumers 10 secondary consumers 100 primary consumers 1000 producers 10000 sun
Energy can be transferred from one location to another as in the sun's energy travels through space to Earth. The two ways that energy can be transferred are by doing work and heat transfer. Also energy can be transferred from one object to another.
