How does heat from a radiator transfer?
The heat energy from the radiator transfers that energy to the air molecules next to it. Those molecules then transfer that heat energy to the molecules next to them. This process continues until all the molecules are at the same energy level. This process is call conduction.
How do you calculate the efficiency of energy transfers?
Only 10% of the energy in one level gets to the next. The other 90% is used on movement. If you can figure out how much energy is in one trophic level, you can get how much energy gets to the next level by multiplying it by 0.1
As you move upward from level to level in a energy pyramid energy?
um.....the 4 main levels are producer, primary consumer, secondary consumer, and teritiary consumer. The energy gets smaller as you move from each level to the animal that consumes it. For example, plankton can have 1000 energy bits, but when it moves up to trout, only 100 energy bits move on to the trout. When the heron eats the trout, the heron only gets 10 energy bits passed onto its body from the trout. Remember to finish your question next time. I hope that i have answered your needs.As always,iLuvScienceBcuzItIzCool
Why is energy lost at each level of an energy pyramid?
10% 1% Energy from sun(100%)---->Producer--->Primary consumer-->Secondary consumer (90%) 9% 0.9%
Explain how energy passes through a food chain?
The first level of the food chain are producers who make their own food from photosynthesis. The herbivores and omnivores eat the first level and convert that energy for use. That level is also eaten by the omnivores and the carnivores who further convert the energy.
What percent of energy transfers from one trophic level to the next?
10%-20%
If a caterpillar is a primary consumer what level will energy flow to next after the caterpillar?
Secondary Consumer
When is the next minimum wage increase in Florida?
The next scheduled increase occurs on January 1, next year. The amount of the increase is determined by the Consumer Price Index.
What can happen next to food energy taken by a second level consumer?
that it will break down.

How does the energy get from nature to the consumer?
The light energy comes from the sun and is used in photosynthesis in plants. the energy is stored in the plant and the plant gets eaten by a consumer. The consumer only gets 10% of the energy in the plant, as does the next predator only get 10% of what the consumer eats. This is why the next predator always needs to eat more than 1 of the preveous in the food chain. 1 fox -eats- 10 rabits -eats 1000 blades of grass. this way they gat the enery they need.

How much energy is lost by the time time it gets to the consumer from the producer?
Only about 10% of the energy available at one level of the food chain is available for use by organisms in the next level. For example, if you begin with an energy level of 2000, only 200 would be available at the next level, 20 at the next, and 2 at the next.
How does sound travel in air?
Sound Waves push air particles out of the way.Sound travels as a wave. each particle of air transfers the sound energy to the next.

How to prevent biomagnification?
Biomagnification is the increase in pollutants from the environment from one consumer to the next. To avoid this, educate yourself on the diet and living conditions of the food you are eating.
What happens with the energy that is not transferred from one trophic level to the next?
Those energy that are not transferred to ATP loss as heat.
