Consumer because a consumer eats plants and animals for energy Producers create their energy through photosynthesis
Only about 10% is passed from level to level. In this case it is 10% of 1500 calories or 150 calories. This the reason why there has to be many, many producers and why there are only a few consumers. And why you will only see a few eagles or wolves at the very top of the pyramid.
they provide energy or calories
A producer is always at the beginning of a food chain. A producer will always be a plant. A primary consumer eats the producer. The secondary consumer eats the primary consumer. The scavenger comes next (if it gets there before the decomposer.) The decomposer will always be last. Example: (where there is a scavenger) grass --> rabbit --> fox --> vulture --> mushroom producer, primary consumer, secondary consumer, scavenger, decomposer
The food chain.
producers

Mitochondria provide most of the energy in a cell.
Mitochondria provide most of the energy in a cell.
yes producers have the most energy. then the first level cunsumer has one 10th the energy that producers have. and 2nd level cunsumers have one 10th the energy then a 1st level cunsumer has . etc. etc.
