Solution
The correct option is A Migration
The nutritional quality of material that is consumed also influences how efficiently energy is transferred because consumers can convert high-quality food sources into new living tissue more efficiently than low-quality food sources. Decomposers process large amounts of organic material and return nutrients to the ecosystem in inorganic form, which is then taken up again by primary producers. Energy is not recycled during decomposition, but rather is released, mostly as heat. But migration does not affect the nutrient flow in an ecosystem. So, the correct option is 'Migration'.
