Chemical nutrients can move through an ecosystem through plants. The plants can extract chemical nutrients from the ground and when animals eat green plants, they transfer from plants to animals.

Chemicals are moved through an ecosystem through diffusion, convection, and hydrodynamic dispersion. Chemicals can also be moved through an ecosystem by one animal consuming another, and thus absorbing the chemicals present within the eaten organism. Transformations of chemicals can also happen within an environment in processes such as nitrogen fixation.
