i had the same q for science but no one nows not even yahhoo so im sooooo dumed
Hah i had the Q also and it is most likely:
The energy role that is filled by the first organism in a food chain is the producer... This means that the plant (the one that produces) is at the very bottom of the food chain and it produces the energy for all of the other animals...

When an organism from one trophic level is eaten by an organism at the next level up, approximately 10% of the energy from the first organism is transferred to the second. This phenomenon is known as the 10% rule in ecology, which illustrates that energy diminishes as it moves up the food chain due to processes like respiration, growth, and reproduction. Consequently, higher trophic levels have less energy available, which limits the number of organisms that can be supported at each level.
An organism's position in a sequence of energy transfers is determined by its trophic level - where it falls in the food chain. Producers are at the first trophic level, followed by herbivores, then carnivores, and finally decomposers. Each level represents a transfer of energy from one organism to the next in an ecosystem.
An organism that gets its energy from producers (plants/autotrouphs). It is the first heterrotophs on a food chain.
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 of energy................................while the last organism in the chain (top predator) will have the least number of energy in the chain.
a what?
A food chain runs off of different levels - each having one living organism in it, per food chain. The levels indicate a section where energy is used up by an organism - namely the one that attained the energy.
Bacteria would always be the first link in a food chain. This is simply because it is so small and is, essentially, everywhere.
the energy value decreases because it's used by the organism in order to survive before it can be passed on It depends on what kind of energy. Kenetic energy will transfer from organism to another in the same way any other object transfers its motion energy. Spiritual energy can be transfered to the second organism, and yet, be retained by the first. The same can be said for emotional energy. By jack phillips

The first thing I thought of was by eating it. We know this because energy cannot be created or destroyed - so where does the energy of the devoured organism go? Into the system of the organism that devoured it.
There are various sources (such as heat, nutrients, etc.) and they are processed in many ways. In many cases the first organism in a chain lives off of the wastes of the high animals of the chain.Would need a specific chain to be able to answer more definitively.
