Really, it depends on the food chain.

But the Sun is usually at the bottom, the energy is taken by plant life.

Then plant life usually is next to the sun at the bottom, along with anything that synthasis' the sun's energy.

Bacteria would always be the first link in a food chain. This is simply because it is so small and is, essentially, everywhere.

What is a enery pyramid?

If the organisms in a food chain are arranged according to trophic levels, they form a pyramid, with a broad base representing the primary producers and usually only a few individuals in the highest part of the pyramid. Also known as a "pyramid of numbers," an ecological pyramid is a way of describing the distribution of energy, biomass, or individuals among the different levels of ecosystem structure.


What model shows the number of organisms at each tropic level in an ecosystem?

The major types of ecological pyramids are a pyramid of numbers or biomass or energy.The pyramid of numbers depicts the number of individual organisms at different trophic levels of food chain. Successive links of trophic structure decrease rapidly in number until there are very few carnivores at the top.In many ecological pyramids, the producers form the base and the successive trophic levels make up the apex. The apex is a term meaning pointed top.Energy pyramids are always slopping because less energy is transferred from each level than was paid into it.

What are the shapes of each of the faces on a pyramid?

All except the base are always triangles; the shape of the base gives the name to the pyramid; eg a pentagonal pyramid has a pentagon as the base and five triangular faces; a triangular pyramid has three triangular faces and also has a triangle for the base.

What is the source of energy for all ecological pyramids?

You just keep going down the pyramid and then at the very base is the Sunlight that the producers use for photosynthesis.


What is the base of all ecological pyramids?

Producer organisms are at the base of all ecological pyramids. They are the only organisms which can make their own food (autotrophs). The overwhelming majority of them are green plants and single celled organisms which photosynthesise, though a few are chemautotrophs, that is they get energy from inorganic materials.

Is base and sides in a pyramid the same?
