In the producer, energy is lost through growth, respiration and other life processes. It's the same in the consumer - excretion, respiration, movement, growth and other life processes all account for the vast amounts of energy that are lost in a food chain. This explains why food chains don't normally last longer than 4 stages - producer, consumer, secondary consumer and tertiary consumer.
