Question
Identify the correct sequence for flow of energy in a food chain:
- Producers→ Consumers →Decomposers
- Consumers→ Producers→ Decomposers
- Decomposers→ Producers→ Consumers
- Consumers→ Decomposers→ Producers
Hint:
Producers are plants, consumers are animals, and decomposers feed upon dead and decaying organic matter.
The correct answer is: Producers→ Consumers →Decomposers
Producers in an ecosystem produce food. The producer is mostly the vegetation present in the ecosystem. Producers are fed upon by herbivores which in turn are fed upon by carnivores. The carnivores are decomposed to complete this ecosystem. Hence, the correct sequence for the flow of energy in an ecosystem is:
Producers→ Consumers →Decomposers
