Question

If these organisms were arranged in energy pyramid, which organism would have the least amount of total available energy in relation Insect, coyote, lizard or shrub

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is - coyote

Explanation:

In this food chain like other food web or chain, the producer makes their food and are photosynthetic plants which are fed by primary consumers or herbivores. Secondary consumers prey on these primary consumers and top predators eat these secondary consumers. In energy pyramid, the producer has the highest amount of energy and its decreases with the tropic level as only 10 percent of total energy move to next trophic level.

In these organisms, shrubs are a producer with the highest amount of energy, and it decreases with insects (primary consumer), then lizards secondary consumer and least amount of energy in coyote.
