What kind of diagram shows the flow of energy among different trophic levels?
Energy pyramid Apex^^^^^
What is an ecological pyramid?
An ecological pyramid is a diagram that shows the relative amounts of energy or matter contained within each trophic level in a food chain or food web.
Which shows the correct order or increasing trophic level from producer to tertiary consumers?
primary consumers -->secondary consumers -->tertiary consumers
What does a number pyramid tell you about an ecosystem?
Shows the relative number of individual organisms at each trophic level.
What does a biomass pyramid present?
Biomass - the total dry weight of the organisms in a trophic levelBiomass Pyramid - a diagram showing the biomass at each trophic level of a food chainA pyramid of biomass shows energy lost in each trophic level while a pyramid of numbers shows the numbers of the organisms in each trophic level

What is an ecological pyramid?
An ecological pyramid is a diagram that shows the relative amounts of energy or matter contained within each trophic level in a food chain or food web.
What are the 4 kinds of ecological pyramind?
The first of the four, is the ecological pyramid. It shows the number of organisms in each of the trophic levels in an ecosystem. At the base of the levels are the producers and at the top of the pyramid are the final consumers. The second is the number pyramid. This also shows the number of organisms in each of the trophic levels but it does not take into consideration the size of each of the organism in the levels. This pyramid has four levels, starting from the bottom is the total number of producers, then the total number of herbivores, third the total number of small carnivores, and finally the total number of large carnivores. The third pyramid is the biomass pyramid. This pyramid is an indication of the total mass of organisms in the trophic levels. There are three levels of biomass in this pyramid. These are producers ( 470.0 g/m2), then herbivores (0.6 g/m2), and last the carnivores ( 0.1 g/m2). And it is possible for the second level to be greater than the third. Last, is the energy pyramid which indicates the total amount of energy that is in the trophic levels. It also is able to show the loss of energy between the trophic levels. The four levels in this pyramid are Producers, Primary consumers, Secondary consumers and at the top are the Tertiary consumers. As energy passes between the levels, such as from producers to primary consumers, much of the energy is lost due to waste and the conversion to heat energy.
How are energy pyramids and trophic level alike?
The trophic levels show which organisms are at each level of the energy pyramid. The pyramid is shaped exactly as a pyramid. The lowest level contains the most energy and the most in number and variation of species. The next level only has 10% of the first levels' energy and fewer species. The amount of energy in the first level determines the number of levels possible. The tropical rain forest has the most levels (as many as 4) and a desert has the fewest (as few as 2).
