Use the model here to describe the transfer of matter and flow of energy from one trophic level to another within an ecosystem. All of the following must be addressed in your response to receive full credit: a. Discuss the transfer of biomass when one organism eats another. Use your knowledge of digestion to discuss how food is broken down and used by the consumer.

Model of Jungle.

Explanation:

The model of jungle can efficiently describe the transfer of matter and flow of energy from one trophic level to another. In a jungle, producers are the grasses which can be eaten by deer and zebra which are herbivores or primary consumers. Lions, tiger and cheetah are secondary consumers which feeds on these herbivores. The transfer of matter and flow of energy occur from one trophic level to another within an ecosystem through feeding of one animal by another. When one animals feed on another animal, only 10% of energy from biomass is transferred in other organism while the remaining energy is released in the form of heat energy. The food is broken down by the stomach into simpler substances with the use of enzymes.
