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.
