What does “Energy flow” actually mean in Ecosystem & Ecology, and why does it matter for NEET?
energy moves one-way through an ecosystem — from the sun to producers to consumers — and is lost as heat at each step.
In simple words: energy moves one-way through an ecosystem — from the sun to producers to consumers — and is lost as heat at each step. Getting Energy flow clear matters because NEET questions on Ecosystem & Ecology usually test this idea directly, not just a formula you memorised.
Key point

Common mistake
