Energy flows through an ecosystem in a linear sequence, starting with producers, such as plants, which convert sunlight into chemical energy through photosynthesis. Herbivores, or primary consumers, then obtain energy by consuming these producers. Carnivores, or secondary consumers, acquire energy by eating herbivores. This flow of energy illustrates the transfer of energy from one trophic level to the next in a food chain.

How can producers get into a carnivore if a carnivore eats only animals.?

There are 2 answers:1.a carnivore eats a animal with producers in the dead animals stomach.2. In terms of energy, to get the energy of the producers, the producers get eaten by a herbivore of omnivore which carries the energy from the food it eats which is then passed to the carnivore if the carnivore eats the herbivore or omnivore.It's means lthe animals who just eat meat like Lion.
