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.
Spontaneous energy transfer from a lower temperature to a higher temperature system is least likely to be found in nature, as this contradicts the second law of thermodynamics. This would violate the natural tendency for energy to flow from a higher temperature to a lower temperature system.
The nature of consumer behavior is easy to understand. Consumers buy or eat what they want and what they value.
It gets 10% of energy from the secondary consumer.
consumer
the secondary consumer gets 10% of the energy from consuming primary consumer.
Consumer because a consumer eats plants and animals for energy Producers create their energy through photosynthesis
the tertiary consumer.
A consumer depends on the trophic level below it for energy.
A consumer depends on the trophic level below it for energy.
No it is a consumer of energy.
What does a consumer in a food chain depend of for energy?
One third of coal's energy reaches the consumer.
