Do ecosystems need a constant supply of energy to maintain order?

Ecosystems need a constant supply of energy to counteract the universal tendency toward increasing disorderliness as stated by the Second Law of Thermodynamics.

Further, ecosystems are not exempt from the Second Law of thermodynamics. They need a constant supply of energy to synthesise the molecules they require, to counteract the universal tendency toward increasing disorderliness.The green plant in the ecosystem are called producers. In a terrestrial ecosystem, major producers are herbaceous and woody plants. Likewise, producers in an aquatic ecosystem are various species like phytoplankton, algae and higher plants.
