Energy and chemicals move through ecosystems in different ways. nutrients are constantly through the ecosystem, while energy moves through an ecosystem in direction.

Energy and chemicals move through ecosystems in different ways. nutrients are constantly recycled  through the ecosystem, while energy moves through an ecosystem in one direction.

Explanation:

Nutrients are recycled by nature through the cycles of nutrients also called biogeochemical cycles.

Biogeochemical cycles are processes that occur in nature to ensure the recycling of chemical elements in the environment. It is these cycles that allow the elements to interact with the environment and with living beings, that is, they ensure that the element flows through the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere and biosphere.

Biogeochemical cycles, by promoting a cycling of the elements, ensure that they are used and subsequently available again. This is an extremely important factor because some elements are essential for living beings, and their constant use, without replacement, could lead to the extinction of species.

The major biogeochemical cycles found in nature are the water, carbon, oxygen and nitrogen cycles.

[ answer ]

foliated

[ explanation ]

foliation forms in a rock when pressure squeezes the rock together. the rock then has a design of many different color little lines. there are three types of foliated rock. the types are slate, schist, and gneiss. each type of foliated rock is different based on grain size and foliation characteristics. the lines appear when the rock has been under pressure.
