Food chains‚ Food Webs and the Flow of Energy in Ecosystems Introduction An ecosystem can be defined as a more or less self-contained function unit in ecology consisting of all abiotic and biotic interactions in a specific area. Flow of energy within an ecosystem is a one-way process; Photosynthesis utilizes light (solar) energy to yield chemical energy that is passed on to organisms at significantly reduced amounts at each level of nutrition. This ‘inefficiency’ in energy transfer is the principal constrain

blooms are a phenomenon to take notice of. In Jennifer Purcell’s 2010 Jellyfish Blooms: New Problems and Solutions‚ Purcell states the likely causes of these occurrences include‚ but are not limited to‚ "over-harvesting of commercial species‚ eutrophication‚ [and] decreased oxygen." If jellyfish are affected by these changes‚ then so are the other species in their ecosystem. Therefore an increase in jellyfish blooms is indicative of the general degradation of the ocean as a whole and is a topic of
