Scientists use a food chain or a food web to describe the way energy flows through an ecosystem, showing the transfer of energy from one organism to another as they consume and are consumed by each other. This helps explain how energy is transferred and distributed throughout different trophic levels in an ecosystem.
A food web is a diagram that shows how energy in food flows from one organism to another in an ecosystem. It depicts the transfer of energy through various trophic levels, from producers to consumers and decomposers. Each organism is shown within the web based on its feeding relationships with other organisms.
Energy flows between organisms through the consumption of food. Producers, such as plants, capture energy from the sun through photosynthesis and are consumed by primary consumers, like herbivores. This energy is then passed along the food chain as consumers eat other consumers, with energy being transferred and utilized at each trophic level.
The primary producers, such as plants or algae, would begin the flow of energy through a desert food web by converting sunlight into chemical energy through photosynthesis. These primary producers are then consumed by herbivores, which are subsequently consumed by predators, leading to the flow of energy through the food web.

Energy flows up a food chain, from the primary producers to the primary consumers, to the secondary consumers, up to the tertiary and then quaternary consumers. Energy flows when one organism eats another.
The energy is reduced in such a way that only 10% is passed to each level.
In a food web, matter cycles through different organisms as they consume and decompose each other. Energy, on the other hand, flows in one direction through the food web as it is transferred from one organism to another through feeding.
a food web is a model representing the many interconnected food chains and pathways on which energy flows through a group of organisms.

This also applies to a food chain - The arrows in a food web represent the flow of energy through the web, further along the arrows/web means that less energy is moving along. The energy flows through arrow to the next consumer, the energy moving through the arrows have less and less energy as the web moves on. To put it in (much) simpler terms, the thing its pointing to eats the other thing.
No it does'nt it shows how energy flows

Each organism is shown within the web based on its feeding relationships with other organisms.
Energy flows through an ecosystem in a unidirectional manner, typically entering as sunlight and being converted into chemical energy through photosynthesis by producers. This energy then flows through the various trophic levels as organisms consume one another in a food chain or food web, with energy being lost as heat at each step.
