Energy and Matter movement through an ecosystem

Law of conservation of energy states that:

Energy and Matter movement through an ecosystem Law of conservation of energy states that: YET, 90% of energy that passes from one trophic level to the next seems to go away. where does it go?

Energy and Matter movement through an ecosystem Law of conservation of energy states that: YET, 90% of energy that passes from one trophic level to the next seems to go away. where does it go? 1. poop 2. heat 3. metabolism (sugar  ATP)

Where does the energy to power us through the day come from?

Where does it go?

So, what do we do that impacts the carbon cycle?

Deforestation
