<span>The ecological pyramids are shaped as pyramids themselves because the amount of energy decreases almost by ten percent, as we move from one trophic level to another. At the base, producers are placed. They synthesize their own food and are present in very large number. The organisms which consume them, are less in population, as compared to producers and have less energy as well, and this, is true for each next trophic level, and hece, the pyramid.</span>
