What level on the energy pyramid has the most biomass?
THE LEVEL ON the pyramid that has the most biomass is the tertiary level.
The pyramid which best explains why there are typically only four to five links in a food chain is the pyramid of 1. energy. 2. productivity.3. biomass.4. matter. 5. number?
Energy
What percent is lost as you move up the energy pyramid?
10%
How is the energy from biomass released?
Energy from biomass is released by combustion.
How much does biomass energy?
Biomass energy produces 3% of the worlds energy
Which type of diagram shows the number of trophic levels an ecosystem supports?
A biomass pyramid.
How does energy get lost in Energy flux pyramid Biomass pyramid Numbers pyramid?
The higher an organism is in the energy pryamid the less energy. the lower the organism`s posittion in the pyramid more energy
How would a pyramid reflecting biomass be similar to or different from an energy pyramid?
A biomass pyramid looks like an energy pyramid, in that the largest biomass is contained in the producer level, and the least biomass is contained in the level of the highest order consumer. Basically, as you move up the energy pyramid, there is less energy available to support the biomass at each subsequent level.
Path energy takes from producers consumers decomposers is a called?
biomass , you put it in a pyramid, so a pyramid of biomass.
What does a biomass pyramid represent?
A pyramid of biomass shows how much energy the organism on a food chain is getting from its food.
Whats the difference between biomass pyramid and energy pyramid and number pyramid?
== == Of the trophic levels of the ecological pyramid, there are three ways to describe the flow of energy in food chains. Numbers, energy and biomass. See the related link for more information.
Which section of an energy pyramid is the largest and Why?
A pyramid is bigger at the bottom and small and pointy at the top. so its bigger at the bottom, otherwise it would have been called an energy upside-down pyramid =). But anyway, energy enters a food chain from the sun. some energy and biomass is lost at each stage of a food chain as feaces, movement energy and heat energy (especiall birds and mammals). therefore only a small amount of energy and biomass is incorporated into a consumer's body and transferred to the next feeding level. the loss of energy and biomass at each stage is a representation of why the pyramid gets smaller at the top.
What happens to biomass as you move up its pyramid?
The Biomass decreases as the energy is used up on the way to the "top".
I know that 10 percent of energy is lost as each level goes up in a biomass pyramid but where is the rest of the energy lost to?
To live things use energy. They have to eat other tings for food unless they are plants, which can make their on food by trapping Sunlight energy.
What are the 3 types of food pyramids?
The 3 Types of Food Pyramids: Energy Pyramid Pyramid of Biomass Pyramid of Numbers
What level on the energy pyramid has the most biomass?
THE LEVEL ON the pyramid that has the most biomass is the tertiary level.
What is the advantage of using a biomass or energy pyramid rather than a pyramid of numbers?
Not all organisms have the same mass. Consider 1 whale versus 5,000 plankton - the whale has much greater mass, but only 0.1% of the total number of organisms. When you compare mass, you get a better idea of how much energy is actually available at that trophic level. Basically, they are better to understand.
