Answer:
10000 units in the second
100000 units in the third
1000000 units in the fourth
Explanation:
According to the pyramid of energy, which describes how energy flows from one trophic level to another, only about 10% of the available energy is transferred to the organism in the next trophic level as a lot of energy (about 90%) is lost as heat.
In this question, in order to have 1000inits of energy in
- Second trophic level = 1000 = 10/100 × x
10x = 100000
x = 10000units of energy
- for third trophic level,
100 × 1000
= 100000 units of energy
- for fourth trophic level;
1000 × 1000
= 1,000,000 units of energy.
