Solution

Energy cycle

Explanation:

The Energy cycle describes the movement of solar energy through ecosystems. Solar energy is absorbed by plants (producers) through photosynthesis, and then it flows through the food chain to herbivores, carnivores, and decomposers. As energy moves through the living organisms, some of it is passed back to the non-living environment as heat, and the cycle continues. This process is also known as the flow of energy in an ecosystem.
