A severe drought in a grassland will reduce the number of consumers in the entire energy pyramid Why?
A severe drought in a grassland will reduce the number of consumers in the entire energy pyramid Why?
On the energy pyramid what level does the heterotroph go on to?
They are the consumers.
What is the coral reef energy pyramid?
The coral reef energy pyramid is the same as any other ecosystem energy pyramid. There are producers and primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers.
Why quaternary consumers occupy the top possition in the pyramid of energy?
Energy is lost ascending each trophic level of the pyramid of energy. Therefore, when quaternary consumers eat tertiary consumers, most of the energy stored in the tertiary consumers' bodies is lost and only 10-15% is passed on to the quaternary consumers. Quaternary consumers, meanwhile, occupy the top position in the pyramid of energy because nothing preys upon them in turn. (This answer is straight from E2020 answer check please Enjoy :)
Where on the energy pyramid will you find the following?
from top to bottom of the pyramid: tertiary consumers... and so on. secondary consumers (carnivores) primary consumers (herbivores) primary producers (like grass)
What diagram can be used to show the population of producers primary consumers and secondary consumers in the system?
Energy pyramid
Which diagram can be used to show the population of producers primary consumers and secondary consumers in a system-?
Energy Pyramid
Where is a snail on an energy pyramid?
Primary Consumers
A severe drought in a grassland will reduce the number of consumers in the entire energy pyramid Why?

What has the most energy in the energy pyramid?
Tertiary Consumers and Secondary carnivores
On the energy pyramid what level does the heterotroph go on to?
They are the consumers.
Why do producers make up the base of the energy pyramid?
because they give energy to consumers and all others in the energy pyramid
What is the coral reef energy pyramid?
The coral reef energy pyramid is the same as any other ecosystem energy pyramid. There are producers and primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers.
Does a producer represent the base of an energy pyramid?
Its just give Energy to consumers ,

In an energy pyramid which group of organism acquires the most energy?
a.first-order consumers b.second-order consumers c.third-order consumers d.decomposers
Where does an ecosysytem get energy?
Initially, energy from the sun is used by producers, which are photosynthetic, to make food. Primary consumers eat the photosynthetic organisms. Secondary consumers eat primary consumers, and so on. Tertiary consumers are at the top of the food pyramid. The amount of energy decreases with each level of the food pyramid as energy is lost as heat. This is why animals at the top of the pyramid, the tertiary consumers, must consume more animals to receive a sufficient amount of energy for survival.
