This podcast (audio) file explains how electric current can be obtained from the sun through the solar panel using direct illumination of the sun rays

Food webs are models that demonstrate how matter and energy is transferred between producers, consumers, and decomposers as the three groups interact within an ecosystem. Transfers of matter into and out of the physical environment occur at every level. Decomposers recycle nutrients from dead plant or animal matter back to the soil in terrestrial environments or to the water in aquatic environments. The atoms that make up the organisms in an ecosystem are cycled repeatedly between the living and nonliving parts of the ecosystem.

• Predict how current will change when resistance of the circuit is fixed and voltage is varied.
