Not sure what you mean with "10 percent of energy is transferred". The amount of energy on Earth will remain more or less constant, because energy incoming from the Sun will either be reflected immediately, or - if it is absorbed - most of it will heat up matter, which will make it radiate heat radiation (infrared radiation) faster, until eventually a balance is reached.
between each tier of the energy pyramid, energy is lost as heat
answer is 1 percent b/c the insect gets 10 percent of the plant's energy, and only 10 percent of that 10 percent is available for the bird,,, free ( joey jihad ) .. youtube him
10% 1% Energy from sun(100%)---->Producer--->Primary consumer-->Secondary consumer (90%) 9% 0.9%
It is only 10 percent efficient because the majority of the energy is converted to heat and lost to the atmosphere.
Only about 10% of the energy is transferred from one trophic level to another.
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
This rule means that only 10% of the energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next. By consuming Primary producers one will have the most energy.
10 PERCENT
Only about ten percent of energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next in an ecosystem. This is why the amount of animals in higher levels is smaller.

i think 10%
