A type of chemical energy.
The energy flux of a food chain goes from producer to decomposer. The energy flux along the food chain is always unilateral.
Heat energy
food chain
Producers are placed at the bottom of the food chain because the do not eat other living organisms and instead get their energy though the sun.
plant
Chemical
Spider
It goes from light energy from the sun to chemical energy to chemical, mechanical, and heat energy and the chemical energy can go to mechanical and heat energy. Then the remaining chemical energy goes to chemical, heat, and mechanical energy again and it keeps on repeating.
The chain itself only has chemical energy equal its weight and material. Then it'll have a bit of potential energy depending on where it's kept. If it's turning it'll have a bit of kinetic energy as well.
Chloroplast converts light energy into chemical energy, whereas mitochondria converts chemical energy into a different chemical energy. Chloroplast is present in plants and mitochondria is present in all cells
producer
