Question

what percentage of energy form one tropic levele is avaliable to the next trophic level?
o a. 5%
o b. 10%
o c. 25%
o d. 65%
o e. 90%

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In an ecosystem, according to the 10% law of energy transfer, only about 10% of the energy from one trophic level is available to the next trophic level. This is because a significant amount of energy is lost as heat during metabolic processes (like respiration), used for growth and maintenance of the organisms at each level, and not all biomass is consumed or digested by the organisms at the next trophic level.

Answer:

B. 10%
