How does the pyramid shape illustrate the fate of energy along a food chain?

An energy pyramid is like a food chain, because at the top of the pyramid, there is the most energy, and at the bottom there is the least energy. The same goes for a food chain, because the producer has 100% of the energy. The final consumer, or tursury consumer, has either little or no energy left from the primary, and secondary consumers, because they have used up almost all the energy breathing, moving and during digestion.

Which category of food in the food pyramid should you eat most often?

In 2011 the USDA changed the Food Pyramid to a food plate called MyPlate. The plate features four sections: fruits, grains, protein and vegetables, with vegetables and grains being the largest of the four. The plate also features a side of dairy. Because vegetables and grains make up the largest sections, those are the food groups that should make up the majority of your diet.

How do bacteria cause an illness as food poisoning?

Food pisoning is most often caused by toxic substances that bacteria found in food produce. The bacteria have grown and multiplied in the food, most often if the food is stored at a certain temperature that must not be too low or too high. The toxins are sometimes produced when the bacteria grow and multiply in the food before eating it. Other times the bacteria produce the toxins when they grow and multiply further inside the stomach and intestines after the food has been eaten.
