Why is the energy reduced at each level of the energy pyramid

Biology
1 answer:
Nostrana [21]2 years ago
7 0

Answer: because every time something eats something 10% of the energy is passed on so it starts as 100% with plants photosynthesizing then the herbivore gets 10% of that energy. The carnivore that eats the herbivore gets 10% of the herbivore’s energy so by the time it gets to the top of the pyramid there is less and less energy to consume.

Give an example of a thing that is living and a thing that is not living.
goblinko [34]

Answer:

Living things may be distinguished from non-living things in their ability to carry on life processes such as movement, respiration, growth, responsiveness to environmental stimuli and reproduction. This view of living may be appropriate at this age but has some limitations and can lead to the alternative conceptions above. For example movement in plants is not apparent to students and consequently they may not consider plants living.
