Well, first the energy will start from the sun and the plant will turn the light energy into chemical energy, then an organism will eat this plant. Now since every time an organism consumes another organism or plant it will only be able to absorb 10% of its energy. Then the cycle will continue until the top carnivore dies and the decomposes absorb the energy and start the cycle over.
The Musk Ox is a consumer of plants not a producer.
A bluegill is a consumer because it obtains its energy by consuming other organisms, typically small invertebrates and aquatic insects. It does not produce its own energy through photosynthesis like a producer would.
It is a consumer.
A kapok tree is a producer. It is capable of photosynthesis, converting sunlight into energy to produce its own food.

Producer- energy from the
Generally, about 10% of the energy produced by a producer (like plants) is transferred to a primary consumer (like herbivores) in an ecosystem. This is part of the "10% rule" in ecology, which indicates that energy decreases significantly at each trophic level due to factors like metabolic processes and heat loss. As a result, only a fraction of the energy is available to support higher trophic levels.
A consumer is a organism that takes energy from a producer which is something that makes its own food

It is a consumer. Even though we eat it, a producer is something that gets its food from the sun. Beef doesn't get its energy from the sun. It gets its energy from a producer, grass.
Not all the energy from a producer transfer to a secondary consumer because some of this energy is lost along the way.

The producer level.
If a herbivore eats producer materials containing 100 kJ of stored energy, then the energy stored in its body tissues is only 4 kJ. Thus only 4% of the food eaten is stored within the herbivores tissues.
