Which of the 3 consumers rat or snake or hawk will have more energy percent be available?
The hawk will have more energy percent available.
There is less energy available to consumers at higher levels in a food why?
There is less energy available to consumers(animals) ,because most of the energy from the sun is used by the producers(plants)
What is a consumer in biology?
A consumer is a living organism that cannot synthesize energy from the sun. Therefore, consumers get energy by eating other organisms. There are many levels of consumers that make up the food web. These can include primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers, and sometimes quaternary consumers. Primary consumers are herbivores (they can only consume autotrophs). As energy travels from autotrophs to quaternary consumers, much of the energy is used by organisms or (primarily) dissipated as heat. Therefore, there are less quaternary consumers than autotrophs because quaternary consumers cannot get as much energy.
What percent of energy is used from nuclear fission?
In the US, about 20 percent of electricity
Where do producers consumers an decomposers obtain energy?
The energy in the producers comes from the sun. It feeds the consumers. The decomposers ultimately release the energy from the consumers and the producers that were not consumed.
What is a description of the energy flow through an ecosystem?
The plants get 10 percent energy from the sun. The highest concentration of energy is in producers [for example plants or algae]. Then the primary consumer eats only plants but retain only ten percent of their energy. Secondary consumers eat the primary consumers and get ten percent from the primary consumers. Secondary consumers can also eat plants. Then the final level is the tertiary consumers who are typically carnivores and eat secondary consumers. They retain 10 percent from the secondary consumers. So with each level less energy is achieved.
Which of the 3 consumers rat or snake or hawk will have more energy percent be available?
The hawk will have more energy percent available.
What percent of energy is available for consumers at trophic level?
1% because if 10% moves on to each level, and 10% was passed on to the first level consumers, 10% divided by 10% equals 0.01 which is equivalent to 1%, so 1% of the original energy used by plants is passed on to second level consumers. :)
How do producers and consumers get their energy?
Producers and consumers exchange energy and matter in various ways. The producers are used as food for the consumers and the consumers are used as fertilizer and food for producers when they die.
How much energy is available to the first second and third level consumers in the energy pyramid?
About 10% of energy
Which diagram can be used to show the population of producers primary consumers and secondary consumers in a system-?
Energy Pyramid
What diagram can be used to show the population of producers primary consumers and secondary consumers in the system?
Energy pyramid
What do consumers of electricity pay for?
the consumers of electricity pay for the amount of electrical energy they used.
What is the percent of energy used by the prey in an energy pyramid?
twenty percent
Is it true that 0.1 percent of the energy in a food chain generally makes it from the sun to quaternary consumers?
no
There is less energy available to consumers at higher levels in a food why?
There is less energy available to consumers(animals) ,because most of the energy from the sun is used by the producers(plants)
The energy used by all living things starts with?
The energy used by all living things start with producers.
