What is non cyclical nature of energy flow?
Energy cannot "flow" in a cycle, because it cannot be recycled the way materials can. Because of Thermodynamics, energy is constantly being lost to the environment as it flows down from producers to primary consumers and then to the tertiary consumers.Every time energy is needed to keep the system running.
The flow of thermal energy?
the flow of thermal energy
Negative energy balance occurs when energy flow out of the body exceeds energy flow into the body?
TRUE
Do producers take in energy from nitrogen?
Yes, producers do take in energy from nitrogen. This occurs due to the specific nitrogen cycle that allows for continuous flow of nitrogen through the biosphere which is a result of nitrogen fixation processes.
What type of energy do you gain as you cycle up a hill?
You gain Potential Energy as you cycle up a hill.
Why River only go one way?
water can only flow oneway - downhill
Purposes of the oneway valves?
To allow gasses or liquids to flow only in one direction.
Which cycle is most important the water cycle mineral cycle solar energy flow or the community dynamics?
The nitrogen cycle
How is the carbon cycle realted to energy flow in ecosystems?

Why does energy flow and chemicals cycle through food webs?

What two types of energy are most responsible for making the water cycle a continuous flow?
Precipitation and Groundwater
How does the flow of nutrients in an ecosystem differ from the flow of energy in an ecosystem?
The flow of energy in an ecosystem is unidirectional and is not cyclic. It is represented in a flowchart form. The flow of nutrients in an ecosystem is cyclic like a water cycle. An example for flow of energy is :- sun --- producer --- primary consumer --- secondary consumer --- tertiary consumer --- decomposer. The energy remained in the is very little and it is released as heat. An example for flow of nutrients is :- air, water, soil --- producer --- primary consumer ----secondary consumer --- tertiary consumer ---- decomposer ---- air, water, soil--- and so on (cyclic)
What are the different between energy flow and nutrient cycle?
well cheese balls transfer the energy while chickens transfer the nutrients and so thats the major difference

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.)
The flow of thermal energy?
the flow of thermal energy
Where does reputation take place?
Cellular respiration is a cycle of matter and a flow of energy. It takes place just outside and inside the cell's mitochondria.
