Answer:

The correct answer would be option B.

The amount of energy decrease as we up the trophic level in a food chain. It can be explained with the help of ten percent law.

It states that only ten percent of the energy present at any trophic level is passed on to the next trophic level. The remaining energy is lost as heat a result of cellular respiration.
