Lana71 [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

At each stage of the trophic levels, only 10% energy is transferred from one level to another.

Explanation:

In an ecosystem transfer of energy from one stage to another is very inefficient. From first stage to next stage only 10% energy is transferred to next trophic level. Rest 90% lost in environment.

This is known as  LINDEMAN's TEN PERCENT LAW. Given by Raymond lindeman.Only 10% energy from one trophic level to next trophic level is transferred. Rest is used in respiration, breakdown etc.

First stage of trophic level has the highest energy and the last trophic level has the lowest amount of energy.

Which type of organic molecule is wax?
Elena L [17]
<span>Wax is a simple form of lipid molecule. It consists of a long-chain of alcohol and a fatty acid. Many of the natural occurring wax found in nature are used as ingredients for products found in stores like ointments, hand cream, and cosmetics.

Plants have naturally occurring wax on their leaves and stems; these serve as coatings to prevent them from losing excess water. Other forms of wax found in nature are beeswax, used by bees to make their cones for honey and eggs; sperm whales have spermaceti wax found in their blubber; and carnuba wax, is an ingredient commonly used for car waxes, commonly found in Brazilian palm trees. </span>
