1. Flow of energy in an ecosystem is unidirectional from producers to consumers.

2. The ow of energy obeys the laws of the thermodynamics 2-10% of radiant energy (50% of which reaches the earth) is photo synthetically active radiation. It travels through different tropic levels from producers in the form of food energy.

The producers convert radiant energy into chemical energy which is stored as biomass. When energy flows from one tropic level to another only 10% of the total energy is transferred, as certain amount of energy is utilized by the organism belonging to a particular tropic level.
