Answer:
450 kilocalories.
Explanation:
Since only 1/10th of the energy that an organism consumes is passed onto the next level of the pyramid, that would mean only 500/10 = 50 kilocalories are passed on, and the remaining 500 - 50 = 450 kilocalories are used up.

Hello there!
Let's take for example plastic, plastic would take a good while for it to decompose. It wouldn't make sense for it to be "food produce" because food does decompose very quickly. Wood could be the answer, but wood wouldn't take that long for it to decompose, all it could use is some constant water and rain, and then the wood would then give old and just decompose. But even thought that is the case, wood cuttings would be the answer.
Vegetable peels would not take a long time.Most likely, they are probably to fastest in this list above. So, based from your options, your correct answer would be (wood cuttings).
(option a) would be your answer.
I hope you found this helpful
Hypertonic environment
<h3>
How do salts and sugars preserve food?</h3>
Salts and sugars work to preserve foods by creating a hypertonic environment. Salt and sugar will remove the water from the bacteria or fungi and they will not be able to proliferate. Loss of water results in plasmolysis, or cytoplasmic shrinkage.
<h3>What is hypertonic solution and plasmolysis?</h3>
Compared to another solution, a hypertonic solution has a higher solute concentration.
Plant cells subjected to hyperosmotic stress frequently exhibit plasmolysis as a reaction. The live protoplast violently separates from the cell wall as a result of the loss of turgor. The vacuole is primarily responsible for the plasmolytic process.
