Energy and matter (mass) move through ecosystems from the bottom of the pyramid to the top. The bottom contains most of the matter and therefore the most energy. About 10% is passed to the second level. About 10% of that 10% is passed to the third level.
Most ecosystems have three levels as there is not enough energy for a fourth level. Except in tropical rainforest they are fourth levels but no where else.
Food Chains
Water carbon nitrogen
It gets converted into energy.
Hello
Energy flows in one direction from producer to consumer to decomposer.
In a food chain from producers to consumers .
Energy in an ecosystem flows in whats called the 10% rule. Meaning, as you move up the pyramid 10% of energy is lost.

Yes, energy can move matter. In the context of physics, energy can cause matter to change position or speed through various forms such as kinetic energy or mechanical energy. For example, heat energy can cause particles in matter to vibrate, move, or change phase.
Well if I new I wild be a lot more smarter
Matter moves through an ecosystem in a cycle, starting with producers like plants absorbing nutrients from the soil. Consumers then eat the producers, transferring the nutrients up the food chain. Decomposers break down dead organisms, returning nutrients to the soil. This cycle impacts all components of the ecosystem by providing energy for growth and maintaining balance within the system.
Energy moves through an ecosystem primarily through food chains and food webs, beginning with producers like plants that convert sunlight into chemical energy via photosynthesis. Herbivores, or primary consumers, then feed on these producers, transferring energy up the food chain. This energy continues to flow through secondary consumers (carnivores) and higher trophic levels until it eventually dissipates as heat, following the laws of thermodynamics. Decomposers play a crucial role by breaking down dead organic matter, recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem to support new plant growth.
