Answer:
Energy decreases as it moves up trophic levels because energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms from the next level.

To test for the keystone species hypothesis, the wolves in another region can be removed or trees can be reintroduced to see the effect on the ecosystem.
<h3>What is a keystone species?</h3>
A keystone species is an organism whose existence defines an entire ecosystem such that them, the ecosystem would be severely affected or may not exist.
Trophic cascades are events which result in serious distortions in an ecosystem as a result of the removal or addition of a top predator.
To test for the hypothesis of keystone species and trophic cascades, the wolves in another region can be removed or trees can be reintroduced to see the effect on the ecosystem.
