Question

At higher and higher trophic levels, there are usually _____ and _______ animals.

Answer 1

At higher and higher trophic levels, there are usually fewer and larger animals.

The place an organism holds in a food web determines its trophic level. A food chain is a series of living things that consume other living things and may eventually consume themselves. An organism's trophic level is determined by how far along the food chain it is.

Trophic level is important since you cannot see any main consumers if there are no producers (like a plant). Trophic levels are significant because of this. They demonstrate the abundance of food and energy in a well-defined ecosystem, the complexity of "who eats what," the interdependence of all living things, etc.

Organisms in a system with five trophic levels are categorized according to how they obtain food. Primary producers (plants), primary consumers (herbivores), secondary consumers, tertiary consumers, and detritivores make up the five levels (decomposers).

So, generally speaking, we will see larger animals as we up the trophic pyramid. However, as trophic levels rise, these larger creatures must rely on lower energy output from the trophic level below in order to survive. Higher trophic levels typically have fewer creatures as a result.
