a. Discuss the transfer of biomass when one organism eats another. Use your knowledge of digestion to discuss how food is broken
down and used by the consumer. b. Explain what happens to the energy that is not transferred from one organism to another. c. Explain why there are typically fewer organisms at the top of an energy pyramid. d. Use specific numbers and calculations to support your explanation.
Only 10% of energy of the biomass is transferred from organism into another organism while the 90% of energy is lost as a heat energy.
Explanation:
The biomass is transferred from one organism into another by eating of organism. The body of organism converts the biomass eaten into micro-molecules such as glucose, amino acid and fatty acid etc. When organism eats another organism, only 10% of energy of the biomass is transferred from organism into another organism while the 90% of energy is lost as a heat energy. When we go up in the energy pyramid, the number of organisms decreases because there is less food available for the organisms that is present at the top of the pyramid. For example, if there are 1000 of herbivores present in the jungle so the carnivores number are in 100, it is because 1000 herbivores can feed only 100 carnivores. So that's why population decreases when we go up in the energy pyramid.
