Biology

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer 10%. Only 10% of the total energy is transferred to the next trophic level.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

While energy moving from the one trophic ;level to another is lost in many processes.

The transfer is not the 100% due to some reasons like the maintenance of that trophic level.

90 Percent of the produced energy is used in the reproduction of the organisms, their growth, in respiration , movement fighting and other life maintaining processes.

Hence only 10% energy is reached to next trophic level.

During the transfer of energy from one tropic level to the next tropic level around 90% of the total energy is lost in the metabolic processes in the form of heat. Hence only about 10% of the total energy can only be transferred from one tropic level to the next tropic level.

What are roles of producers, consumers, and decomposers in an ecosystem​
Daniel [21]
An organism that obtains energy and nutrients by feeding on other organisms or their remains. A food web is a model of the feeding relationships between many different consumers and producers in an ecosystem. Without plants (the primary producers) consumers and decomposers would not be able to live. Producers always start every food chain. A consumer, also called a heterotroph, is an organism that cannot make its own food. It must eat producers or other organisms for energy.
