The food energy transfer between organisms in an ecosystem

Real World Example

Have you ever played the game of passing a message down a line of people, only to find that the message changes slightly with each person? This is similar to how energy is transferred through a food chain in an ecosystem, where energy starts with the sun and is passed from one organism to another, changing form along the way. Just as the original message gets altered as it moves from person to person, the energy from the sun gets transformed from sunlight to plant matter to herbivore muscle and so on, illustrating how energy changes form as it moves through the food chain.
