What would happen if there was energy added to an ecosystem or nutrients stop being recycled?

Predict what will happen if there are no decomposers?
If there are no decomposers, dead plant and animal matter would not be broken down and recycled back into the ecosystem. This would lead to a buildup of organic material, resource competition, nutrient deficiencies, and ultimately ecosystem collapse. The cycle of nutrients would be disrupted, negatively impacting the balance of the ecosystem.
What would happen if the abiotic environment wasn't recycled?
If the abiotic environment was not recycled, essential resources like nutrients, water, and minerals would become depleted over time, leading to a decline in the health and productivity of ecosystems. This could disrupt the balance of energy flow and biogeochemical cycles, affecting the survival of organisms and ultimately causing ecosystem collapse.
What would happen if the water cycle was not within the ecosystem?
The water would not have recycled back. It would have caused scarcity of water.
What would happen to an ecosystem if all the decomposers were destroyed?
If all the decomposers in an ecosystem were destroyed then the ecosystem would all apart. This is because they give the nutrients back to the soil in order for new organisms to grow.
What would happen to the energy flow through an ecosystem if the decomposers were eliminated?
Nothing. There is a misconception that there is an energetic cycle in an ecosystems but that is erroneous. There is a cycle in nitrogen and other nutrients that decomposers engender and, eventually, plants absorb but there is zero energy content in those as plants take 100 of the energy from the sun. The purport of decomposers is to return nutrients to the soil, not energy. Energy only flows in one direction in the biological world starting and getting dispersed out by the different biological organisms until is thoroughly lost to the entropy in the universe. A decomposer is yet another organism that consumes the energy amassed by the plants from the sun and disperses it out.
Are ecosystems transformers of matter and energy?
In an ecosystem the reactions going on are chemical reactions, and the total weight of the substances involved remains constant. Matter is only destroyed in nuclear reactions such as the fission of uranium, which does not happen in a normal ecosystem. Energy is transformed though, for example the sun's energy is absorbed by plants making them grow.
If you dont eat what will happen?
You will become sick from a lack of nutrients, will lose weight, and will have no energy.
What will happen to oil when glass is recycled?
nothing
What will happen if you do not get enough nutrients for the day?
If you do not get enough nutrients for the day, you will lose energy. You will be likely to consume more food than if you maintain proper nutrient levels.
What will happen to recycled books?
the paper will go to a place where paper is recycled to make more paper.
Why is the transfer of energy in an ecosystem referred to as energy flow not energy cycling?
Entropy. To "cycle" the energy would need to be reused, in reality the energy flows in from the outside and flows back out. (If the system were energy blocked, then all the energy would convert to heat and thus be useless.)
What would happen if you didn't recycle abiotic elements in your ecosystem?
The matter would begin to pile up in an ecosystem and the level of nutrients in the soil would eventually start to decrease, which would affect plant growth. Matter is constantly cycled through ecosystems, and this cycling is what provides a constant supply of nutrients for plants.
