In, say, a food web??

Depends. There is always a portion of the potential energy which is lost as heat to the surrounding area, through excretion etc. So really it depends on the amount of energy received and then lost...impossible to tell without these values unfortunately.

The exact details will surely vary from one organism to another, but in general, most of the energy is eventually converted to heat. A small amount may be stored as an energy reserve, for example as sugar, or as fatty tissue.

How much energy is transferred when one organism consumes another?

Because of the second law of thermodynamics, which states that each time energy is converted from one form to another, some of the energy is always degraded to a lower quality, more dispersed, less useful form and that no system can convert energy from one form to another useful form with 100% efficiency.


How much energy is used at each level of the energy pyramid and not passed on?

Only about 10% of energy is passed on through each energy level. The rest is used or is wasted as heat.
