How much energy is lost as you move from one tropic level to the next?

Consumers that eat producers get the energy that the producers make. These consumers use some of the energy provided by the producer, and then they are eaten by another producer, which gets the energy, and this continues on until there are no more animals in their food chain. More producers then grow, the energy is restored, and the cycle begins again.

How much energy is lost when you move from one tropic level to the next?
42 neons of energy, when mixed with sound waves
Does food web energy always move from a higher to a lower tropic level only?
no i think it moves form producers to herbivores to carnivores :)
How does the amount of energy available at one level of an energy pyramid compared to the next level up?
The most energy is available at the producer level of the pyramid . As you move up the pyramid, each level has less energy available than the level below.
Does the tropic of Capricorn move?
Yes.
What do you call an atom if you move an electron in an atom from a low energy level to a higher energy level within the atom?
no , it only emits energy if it moves from a higher energy level to a lower energy level.
How much energy is lost when you move from one tropic level to the next?
42 neons of energy, when mixed with sound waves
What happens to the energy level as you move up the energy pyramid?
10% of energy is lost as you move from 1 level to the next. So at the end 90% if the energy will be lost as heat.
Does food web energy always move from a higher to a lower tropic level only?
no i think it moves form producers to herbivores to carnivores :)
How does energy move from one level to the next?
Energy is transferred from one level to the next as organisms are consumed. The transfer is inefficient as 90% of the stored energy is lost as heat when that stored energy is burned.
Atoms may emit light energy when?
protons move to a higher energy level protons move to a lower energy level electrons move to a higher energy level electrons move to a lower energy level
Do electrons release energy when they move to a higher energy level?
No, electrons must absorb energy in order to move to a higher energy level. They release energy when they move to a lower energy level.
What is called when each step in a food chain or web?
the steps are known as trophic levels as move down the levels energy from the organisms tends to be lost to the environment
What happens to energy as we move from step to step in a web?
Energy is lost
The amount of energy needed to move an electron from one energy level to another is an?
The amount of energy needed to move an electron from one energy level to another is called a quantum.
How does the amount of energy available at one level of an energy pyramid compared to the next level up?
The most energy is available at the producer level of the pyramid . As you move up the pyramid, each level has less energy available than the level below.
What is meant by the term energy pyramid?
It is when there is most energy at the producer level and each level you move up there is less energy.
What percent is lost as you move up the energy pyramid?
10%
