It depends on the type of animal, but if, for example, you're talking about one lower on the energy pyramid (like a chicken, for example) then this is because of the energy distribution. When an animal consumes something else, it absorbs about 10 percent of the energy of that creature. 

So, lets say a plant has 1000 units of energy. Then a bug comes along, and eats the plant, absorbing 100 units (10 percent) of that energy. Then, a chicken eats the bug, absorbing only 10 units of that energy. Finally, a human eats the chicken, getting only 1 unit of the original energy. 

The reason that something like a bug has to eat less than a human, is because it gets more energy directly from the plant.

Answer:

Romantic love

Explanation:

The triangular theory of love, developed in the late 1980s by psychologist Dr. Robert Sternberg puts forth a viable theory on the concept of love. His theory suggests that people can have varying degrees of intimacy, passion, and commitment at any one moment in time.

In doctor's Sternberg's theory, the concept of love is introduced as a love triangle that is made up of three components:

  • Intimacy, which involves feelings of closeness, connectedness, and bondedness
  • Passion, which involves feelings and desires that lead to physical attraction, romance, and sexual consummation
  • Decision/Commitment, which are feelings that lead a person to remain  with someone and move toward shared goals

The three components of love interact in a systemic manner, working off of one another. The presence of a component of love and a combination of two or more components create seven kinds of experiences. These types of love may vary over the course of a relationship as well. They are: friendship, infatuation, empty love, companionate love, fatuous love, consummate love, and romantic love, the latter which bonds people emotionally through intimacy and physical passion. Partners in this type of relationship have deep conversations that help them know intimate details about each other. They enjoy a sexual passion and affection. these couples may be at the point where long-term commitment or future plans are still undecided.
