the reason is that as you go through the chain or web your energy that being passed or passing it gets smaller because you waste some of your energy and with each organisms get a little from each consumer it eats. also the herbivore get the most energy from the producers since producer get energy from the sun (which has the most energy)
Energy can be lost in a food chain by heat or waste.
energy
Once energy is lost in a food chain, it cannot be recovered. Energy is continually lost as heat through metabolic processes and other activities, leading to a decrease in available energy as it moves through trophic levels in a food chain. This is known as the second law of thermodynamics.
Heat and excretement and tuna!
Because it is lost at the end .
Because energy can be 'lost' by heat at each tier of the food chain.
Heat energy
heat
Energy lost in a food chain is converted into heat and cannot be reused by organisms. This is known as the second law of thermodynamics, which states that energy is not created or destroyed, only transferred and transformed.
energy is lost through heat excretion and movement
Heat, Food, Energy are some ways energy are lost at each level of the food chain.
Every living being in the food chain needs some of the energy for its own maintenance.Every living being in the food chain needs some of the energy for its own maintenance.Every living being in the food chain needs some of the energy for its own maintenance.Every living being in the food chain needs some of the energy for its own maintenance.
