Answer:

Recycled, not recycled

Step-by-step explanation:

In a soil ecosystem, matter is recycled and energy isn't recycled.

Matter is recycled through biogeochemical cycles. Matter has to be recycled because it can neither be created, nor destroyed, and as such, recycling is the only option left.

Energy isn't recycled because most of the energy gotten is used by organisms, as gotten from the plants already, and thus, when it gets to the food chain there isn't much left to be recycled.
