solar energy that is captured by the autotrophs cannot revert back to the sun.also,the energy obtained by herbivores from plants cannot go back to plants.that is why it is said that energy flow in an ecosystem is unidirectional.
sun>plants>herbivores>carnivores.
It travels through a tube or pipe.
I like the circulatory system because it is like a water balloon!:)
because it is the law of nature,energy always flows from higher to lower levels.For eg.
from sun to plants,herbivores,carnivores,omnivores.
yes energy flow from producer to consumer in cyclic path way.

The flow of energy through an ecosystem is described as one-way or linear. This means that energy enters the ecosystem and passes through it without being recycled. Energy enters in the from of light (via photosynthesis) and leaves as heat. Heat is not used as a source of energy by living organisms. Chemical compounds can be recycled, so their movement is cyclical in an ecosystem. The same atoms are used over and over again, so your body will contain atoms that were in the bodies of dinosaurs, for example.
Ecosystem has two main components Biotic and Abiotic, which are independent of each other. Biotic components recive enrgy from abiotic component sunlight. This energy is further transferred from various strata in the Ecosystem which are based on the trophic system. It is teh structure that is based on dependence of one organism on another for teh nutrition purpose. The energy flows from basic producers to top level carnivores, and at the same time released into the atmosphere. The consumed energy is used to carry out various life functions.

This one of those questions that you have to understand that is the way things go. You have to put gasoline into a car to make it go. The same with ecosystems. The first layer are the producers (gas) and the consumers are the car. Consumers use up the energy and there just isn't anyway to reverse this.
Ecological balance is automatic function of nature. When it is saturated by human due to various reasons, the ill effects of it are experienced in the form of natural disasters and incurable diseases. the earth becomes a violent planet. we have to face the wrath of nature.
Describe the one way path of energy though an ecosystem?

It is called a food chain.
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)
because energy flows from one level to another and energy decreases as it moves from layer to layer

Yes. Food or fuel creates energy, energy is transferred through "nutritional" content. There are several different factors that control the primary productivity of energy and biomass flow. Energy flow is the amount of energy that moves through a food chain. The energy input, or energy that enters the ecosystem, is measured in Joules or calories. Accordingly, the energy flow is also called calorific flow. In the study of energy flow, ecologists try to quantify the importance of different species and feeding relationships. The largest source of energy for an ecosystem is the sun.Energy that is not used in an ecosystem is eventually lost as heat. Energy and nutrients are passed around through the food chain, when one organism eats another organism. Any energy remaining in a dead organism is consumed by decomposers. Nutrients can be cycled through an ecosystem but energy is simply lost over time.
Unlike the one way flow of energy, matter is recycled within and between ecosystems.
Energy flow refers to the transfer of physical energy from one place to another. This often involves the flow of fluid.
Unlike the one way flow of energy, matter is recycled within and between ecosystems.
Energy Flow is the movement of energy, which originally comes from the sun, from one organism to another.
