Flow of energy in food chain of an ecosystem is (A)Unidirectional (B)Bidirectional (C)Multidirectional (D)None of these
Flow of energy in food chain of an ecosystem is (A)Unidirectional (B)Bidirectional (C)Multidirectional (D)None of these

Correct option:(A)

Solution:

  • Energy flow in an ecosystem is always unidirectional in nature.
  • Most of energy is released at the trophic level in the form of heat and performing metabolic activities.
  • So 10% is transferred from one trophic level to next level.
  • This makes unidirectional flow of energy.
