The tertiary consumer will receive 500 calories.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Calories produced by the producer = 500,000

The flow of energy through different trophic levels is 10%

After producer comes the primary consumer followed by secondary consumer followed by tertiary consumer.

Energy reached to primary consumer = \frac{10}{100} X 500000

                                                               = 50000 calories

Energy reached to secondary consumer = \frac{10}{100} X 50000

                                                                    = 5000 calories

Energy reached to tertiary consumer = \frac{10}{100} X 5000

                                                              = 500 calories

Therefore, the tertiary consumer will receive 500 calories.

olganol [36]

The right answer is A.

The methylation profile of DNA is not obtained when DNA sequencing is performed.

Gene methylation can induce or repress gene expression depending on the localization of methylated bases.
