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.
How do you calculate the efficiency of energy transfers?
Only 10% of the energy in one level gets to the next. The other 90% is used on movement. If you can figure out how much energy is in one trophic level, you can get how much energy gets to the next level by multiplying it by 0.1
What happens to the energy not passed on to the next level?
It is lost, in the sense that it is converted into unusable energy.
How does heat from a radiator transfer?
The heat energy from the radiator transfers that energy to the air molecules next to it. Those molecules then transfer that heat energy to the molecules next to them. This process continues until all the molecules are at the same energy level. This process is call conduction.
How much energy that is in one tropic level will appear in the next tropic level?
Only 10% of the energy will appear in the next tropic level.
How much energy is passed for one energy level to the next?
as little as 10% of the energy at any trophic level is transfer to the next level
The efficiency of energy transfer from a lower trophic level to the next highest level is roughly?
10
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.
What happens to the 90 percent of energy that does not transfer to the next trophic level in a food chain?
it gets lost through each trophic level while only the other 10% moves on..

How much energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next What happens to the energy not transferred?
i think 10%
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.
What happens when an atom has more electrons than can fit in one energy level?
Answer this question… The extra electrons begin to fill the next energy level.
What happend to the energy that does not transfer to the next level?
It gets used up. In terms of the laws of thermodynamics: it gets converted into lower-quality energy, such as heat.
What happens to the energy that is not passed on to the next level?
It's used up by the metabolism or excreted as waste.
