Answer:
The
flow of energy in an ecosystem occurs in following sequence
The flow of energy is unidirectional because of reasons
given below
(i) Energy flows progressively from one trophic level to
another and cannot revert back.
Energy given out as heat is lost in the environment, it
does not return to be used again
(ii) Also, the available energy decreases at higher trophic
level. Out of the total energy available , at a particular trophic level, only
10% is passed on to the next trophic level,
making it impossible for energy to flow in the reverse
direction.
