90% of the rabbit's energy will not go to the hawk so that leaves you with 10% of 200. The answer is 20

Answer: 20 calories

Explanation:The ecosystem consists of tropic levels that starts from producers and ends on consumers. The producers get the maximum energy from the sun and then transfer only 10% of the total energy to the next tropic levels.

If snake receives 200 calories of the energy by eating rabbit, then 10% of this energy(200) will be transferred to the hawk.

10% of 200 will be 20 calories. This is the total energy hawk will have to use as energy source.
