How nutrient enters the food chain?

A nutrient cycle (or ecological recycling) is the movement and exchange of organic and inorganic matter back into the production of matter. Energy flow is a unidirectional and noncyclic pathway, whereas the movement of mineral nutrients is cyclic.

Answer:By their movement, by their wastes, and by their metabolic.

Explanation:The nutrient cycle is a system where energy and matter are transferred between living organisms and non-living parts of the environment. This occurs as animals and plants consume nutrients found in soil, and these nutrients are then released back into the environment via death and decomposition.
