Answer:
the average percentage of energy lost as heat
Explanation:
An energy pyramid (also called trophic pyramid) is a graphical representation that exhibits how energy flows at each trophic level in a particular ecosystem. In an energy pyramid, it is possible to determine how much energy is available at each trophic level and how energy flows from producers (e.g., photosynthetic plants) to primary consumers (e.g., herbivores), then from primary consumers to the next trophic level (e.g., carnivores), and so successively to all major trophic groups (e.g., higher carnivores). During this chain, energy is lost as heat when it is transferred to the next level, and the average percentage of energy lost increases at each trophic level, thereby less and less energy is available to major trophic groups.
No because we keep putting it into the earth also decomposing animals give off carbon.
The FOIL method is used to multiply binomials, or to multiply (x + 3) by (3x -12) for example. Then multiply the OUTSIDE terms together, or x and -12 to get -12x. Then multiply the INSIDE terms together, or 3 and 3x to get 9x. The multiply the LAST terms together, or 3 and -12 to get -36.
