How do you calculate the percentage biomass passed on from 1 from producers to primary consumers 2 from primary to secondary consumers 3 from secondary consumers to carnivores?
e.g. ORGANISM BIOMASS Grass 1000 Herbivores 300 Small Carnivores 28 Large Carnivores 6 1) from producer to primary = (300/1000)x100 2) from primary to secondary = (28/300)x100 3) from secondary to carnivores = (6/28)x100 Hope this helps :)
Where on the energy pyramid will you find the following?
from top to bottom of the pyramid: tertiary consumers... and so on. secondary consumers (carnivores) primary consumers (herbivores) primary producers (like grass)
Why are there more primary consumers than tertiary consumers?
Because the total energy associated with the primary consumers isn't stored in their bodies, so can't all be passed on to the secondary ones. The rest is used for their life processes, such as movement.
