Answer 2

Which way does energy flow and how does eating an organism result in energy transfer? in 3 sentences

Answer 3

Energy flows from producers (plants or other autotrophic organisms) to consumers (heterotrophic organisms) in an ecosystem. When an organism is eaten, the energy stored in its tissues is transferred to the consumer. This transfer happens as the consumer breaks down the organic molecules of the consumed organism through digestion, releasing the stored energy for its own use.
