Question

Approximately what percentage of energy transfers to the next food chain level?

Answer 1

Answer: 10% is the correct option.

Explanation:

when energy is passed in an ecosystem from one food chain level to the next, only ten percent of the energy will be passed on.

The amount of energy at each food chain level decreases as it moves through an ecosystem. As little as 10 percent of the energy at any food chain level is transferred to the next level, the rest is lost largely through metabolic processes as heat.
