What type of organism is at the top of the energy pyramid?
Apex predatores.
What is the organism that is at the top of the energy pyramid?
Any plant. The energy pyramid starts with the organism with the most direct energy from the the sun, so from top to bottom, a simple example could be: oak tree, squirrel, hawk. Make sense?
What do the arrows represent in an energy pyramid?
It represent the food pyramid and the bottom organism eats less as the top organism eats more.(basically everything on the bottom)
Is it true organism at the top of a pyramid have least amount energy?
Not exactly they get less energy from the animals they consume.
Which organism receives the most energy on the pyramid of energy?
The energy pyramid is a way of gaining a conceptual understanding of energy flow in an ecosystem. There isn't really any animal at the top of the pyramid. Ultimately, the biggest animals die and are consumed by detritivores that would "normally" be placed at the bottom of the pyramid. So it's really a cycle.
Why are there usually fewer organism in the top levels of an energy pyramid?
because it shows energy transfer and how there's more energy at the bottom of the pyramid with the producer and less and less energy as the consumers eat them because they burn out that energy
Why is there less of energy at the top of an energy pyramid?
yes, there is less energy at the top of an energy pyramid
Would green algae be found at the top of an energy pyramid?
No, autotrophic producers are always at the bottom of an energy pyramid.
Look at the food web below. Which organism would be at the top of the energy pyramid for this ecosystem?
Hawk
Where is a Manatee on the energy pyramid?
the manatee is on the top of the pyramid
How an energy pyramid and a food chain are the same and different?
A food chain shows food energy moving from organism to organism. A pyramid ofnumbers show how many organisms were involved in each level of food chain. Food chains always begin with the sun as the source of energy and the pyramid of numbers always has the producer as the base. Pyramid of numbers have more producers at the bottom than consumers at the top.The similarities are that they both are models and they both have the same organisms. They both have top consumers and they both show how energy is passed down from organism to organism.
What does an energy pyramid represents Which principle of ecology?
An energy pyramid is the graphical representation of the trophic levels (nutritional) by which the incoming solar energy is transferred into an ecosystem. The source of energy for living beings on Earth is the Sun.
