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.
Energy flows through an ecosystem from producers (plants) to primary consumers (herbivores) to secondary consumers (carnivores) and so on, through a food chain or food web. Energy is transferred through each trophic level as organisms consume one another. Ultimately, energy is lost as heat at each level and not all energy is transferred to the next level.
Chemicals move into and out of cells primarily through passive diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport processes. Passive diffusion relies on concentration gradients, while facilitated diffusion involves the use of carrier proteins. Active transport uses energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
Energy is transferred in an ecosystem through trophic levels, with some energy being lost as heat at each level. Producers (plants) capture energy from the sun through photosynthesis and pass it on to consumers (animals) through feeding interactions. This energy flow is essential for the functioning of the ecosystem and influences species diversity and interactions.
Pesticides can bioamplify through a process where they accumulate in the tissues of organisms within a food chain, becoming more concentrated at each trophic level. As these pesticides move up the food chain, they can reach levels that are harmful to higher level predators, leading to population declines and disruptions in the ecosystem. This can have cascading effects on other species, ultimately leading to ecosystem-wide damage.
The speed at which a volume of water moves through an aquatic ecosystem is called water flow rate.
Chemicals/Nutrients
Hello
Chemicals move globally through abiotic factors like air currents, water cycles, and soil dynamics. These chemicals are then taken up by biotic factors such as plants, animals, and microbes, which further distribute them through their interactions and movements within the ecosystem. This global movement of chemicals is essential for nutrient cycling and maintaining the balance of ecosystems worldwide.
In a food chain from producers to consumers .

Well if I new I wild be a lot more smarter
Energy flows in one direction from producer to consumer to decomposer.
Ecosystem
These chemicals are cycled through various processes in an ecosystem. For example, decomposers break down organic matter releasing carbon and nutrient elements into the soil for plants to use. Plants then take up these elements for growth, animals consume plants for energy, and when organisms die, decomposers break them down, continuing the cycle. The balance of these chemicals is vital for the health and functioning of the ecosystem.
Energy in an ecosystem flows in whats called the 10% rule. Meaning, as you move up the pyramid 10% of energy is lost.
people have impact the ecosystem by using chemicals because for example if u spray an orange seed its sent to the grocery and when you buy it then when you wash it the water gets the chemical spray an the water goes through pipes and into the river then the animals die .... after all that their wont be no more animals
