Some energy transferred at each successive trophic level enters the environment as heat.
Different trophic levels have different amounts of energy because energy is lost as it moves up the food chain. Organisms at higher trophic levels must consume a larger amount of lower trophic level organisms to obtain enough energy to sustain themselves. This inefficiency in energy transfer limits the amount of energy available at each trophic level.
Different trophic levels have different amounts of energy because energy is lost as it moves up the food chain. Organisms at higher trophic levels need to consume more energy because only about 10% of energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next, with the rest lost as heat during metabolism.
Electrons have different amounts of energy, which allows them to occupy various energy levels or orbitals around an atom's nucleus. When an electron absorbs energy, it can jump to a higher energy level, while releasing energy (often in the form of light) allows it to fall back to a lower energy level. This behavior is fundamental to the structure of atoms and the emission or absorption spectra of elements.

Energy. Different chemical reactions require different amounts of energy to occur, which can affect the speed and extent of the reaction.
Yes, electrons can have different amounts of energy. In quantum mechanical systems where any particle (not just electrons) are bound, they can only acquire discrete amounts of energy called energy levels. Adding energy to an electron in an atom might cause it to jump to a higher energy level and is then said to be in an excited state; if it were to fall to a lower level it would give up a discrete amount of energy equal to the difference in energy between the two states.
Yes, electrons can have different energy levels within an atom. These energy levels are known as electron shells. Electrons in higher energy shells are farther from the nucleus and have more energy than electrons in lower energy shells.
Energy levels produce distinct, quantized amounts of energy that electrons can occupy in an atom. These energy levels determine the electron's distance from the nucleus and influence chemical reactivity and bonding. When electrons move between energy levels, energy is absorbed or emitted in the form of photons.
True
They can have different amounts of water.
Yes. They are found in different energy levels. The number of energy levels depends on the element under consideration.
The two adult brothers would have different jobs and would do different things so they would need different amounts of energy.
