Answer: is recycled and reused
flows only one way
is transferred through the food chain
is eventually lost as heat
Explanation: it is important to remember that energy is never “lost” When they say “lost” they mean it is transformed into a different type of energy. Another way energy is transferred is through the food chain, the food chain consists of primary consumers and secondary consumers. Think of primary consumers as herbivores meaning they eat plants. Plants carry energy and when a primary consumer eats a plant that energy from the plant transfers to the primary consumer. Secondary consumers are carnivorous meaning they eat meat, the primary consumer is the secondary consumer's prey. When the secondary consumer eats the primary consumer, the primary consumer’s energy that it obtained from the plant that it (the primary consumer) ate transfers to the secondary consumer.
