Answer:

hawk

Explanation:

Food chain is a term used to describe a diagram that shows how energy passes between living beings in a sequence in which one living being feeds on another and serves as food for others.

As mentioned earlier, the food chain shows how energy flows in an ecosystem. Within the food chain, vegetables represent the category with the highest amount of energy, however, the higher the level of the category goes up, the lower the amount of energy. Thus, we can say that in the food chain shown in the question above, the hawk is the organism that will receive the least amount of energy.

Industrial and personal use of fossil fuels has dramatically increased the amount of air pollution in the atmosphere while systematically using up the supply of the non-renewable resources such as coal, oil and natural gas
