I think what you are referring to is a food chain, It is a series of energy steps from plants to animals and more animals in the form of food.
It decreases.
what happens is that the energy that was to start with will be broken and half of that will go to continue the cycle because the energy that does not move on is being used by the producer, consumer or scavenger depending on which stage of the food chain or web it is on.
the energy decreases.
Hello
Energy decreases as we go up the food chain because there are less organisms as we go up, so that the ecosystem doesn't run out of food at the bottom of the chain.
They lose energy,which is then used by the cell to make ATP

The energy decreases as you move step to step in a chain The first organism (primary consumer) that eats the producer (green plants) will have the most number
Energy is lost at each step of a food chain through processes like respiration, heat loss, and waste production. As a result, only a fraction of the energy from one trophic level is passed on to the next, leading to a decrease in available energy as you move up the food chain.
Energy and biomass decrease as you move up the food chain due to the second law of thermodynamics, which states that energy is lost as it moves through trophic levels. Organisms higher up in the food chain have less energy available to them compared to those lower down.
The number of organisms typically decreases as you move up the food chain. This is due to energy loss at each trophic level, with only about 10% of energy being transferred from one level to the next. Therefore, less energy is available to support a large number of organisms at higher trophic levels.
The energy stored in food is lost as heat during metabolism, movement, and other activities by the organism. This limits the amount of energy that can be passed on to the next organism in the food chain. As a result, only about 10% of the energy is transferred to the next trophic level, leading to a decrease in available energy as you move up the food chain.
