Why are predators the smallest group at the top in the energy pyramid

Biology
1 answer:
masya89 [10]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Predators eat prey, technically speaking.

Explanation:

The lowest and largest group takes the most energy cause it's first base. Going up the chain, the second group takes that energy from the first. Then the third, takes the energy from the second and so on. It's a cycle, and the the smallest group at the top of the energy pyramid will be given the less energy that travels throughout the pyramid.

I hope this makes sense.

Adaptation is a phenomenon that is about adjusting certain features to environmental conditions. Ie. birds are adapted to flight as they possess wings, very efficient lungs etc. or tropical plants are adapted to high temperature and humidity as they modified their photosynthesis process. but if some creature is adapted to the specific habitat or conditions, it is hard for it to manage in another habitat/different conditions. ie. birds are fast in the air but on the ground they are quite weak and prone to predators' attacks.

Why do you think air pressure is greatest at the lowest part of the atmosphere?
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

At sea level, air pressure is greatest because it is caused by the weight of the entire column of atmosphere at that altitude over that location. As altitude increases, the column of atmosphere gets shorter, and so less weight is pressing down at a given altitude, so atmospheric pressure is reduced.
