Final answer:

Energy flows through organisms in a food chain, while matter is conserved within organisms.


Explanation:

Matter and energy both flow among all organisms in the system, but only energy is conserved. Energy enters ecosystems as sunlight and exits as heat, while matter is recycled and conserved within organisms. The law of conservation of mass states that matter is neither created nor destroyed, but energy transfers occur throughout trophic levels.
