The correct response is:
Energy flows from plants, to rabbits, to raptors.
In this ecosystem, plants use photosynthesis to convert sunlight into energy. Rabbits consume the plants to obtain that energy, and then raptors eat the rabbits to gain energy from them. This flow of energy follows a typical food chain sequence: producers (plants) → primary consumers (rabbits) → secondary consumers (raptors).
