Trophic level efficiency is the ratio of production of one trophic level to the production of the next lower trophic level.
This efficiency is never high.

When the energy flow through an ecosystem is measured at each trophic level what percent of the energy is not transferred?
90%
Why does productivity diminish with increase trophic levels?
Due to poor trophic transfer efficiency, most energy is lost at higher trophic levels.
In ecology green plants are part of what trophic level?
The first trophic level, which are the producers
What trophic level is at the bottom in Biology?
Primary producers are the bottom most trophic level.
What animal would be at the 2nd trophic level?
The group of organisms that occupy the second trophic level of an ecosystem is the herbivores. The herbivores eat the plants in the first trophic level and are then called primary consumers. -Gallo :)
What is efficiency level?
Trophic level efficiency is the ratio of production of one trophic level to the production of the next lower trophic level. This efficiency is never high.
What is the efficiency equation for energy?
The efficiency at which energy is transferred from one trophic level to another is called ecological efficiency.it is estimated that only a 10 percent of available energy is transferred
The efficiency of energy transfer from a lower trophic level to the next highest level is roughly?
10

What is efficiency measured in?
Efficiency is measured in joules.
What trophic level are scavengers?
Scavengers are on every trophic level
What is the trophic level of the bird?
The trophic level is where an organism falls on the food chain. Most birds fall on the highest level, trophic level 4.
What is the hawks trophic level?
they are tertiary consumers. the first trophic level.
what are the trophic level for monarch butterflies?
Their trophic level is primary consumer.
What trophic level is a salamander?
Third trophic level. It eats insects.
Why does productivity diminish with increase trophic levels?
Due to poor trophic transfer efficiency, most energy is lost at higher trophic levels.
