How does the amount of energy available at one level of an energy pyramid compared to the next level up?
The most energy is available at the producer level of the pyramid . As you move up the pyramid, each level has less energy available than the level below.
The flow of energy in an ecosystem can be illustrated by a pyramid Why is less energy available at the top of the pyramid than at the bottom of the pyramid?
This is a confusing shape to use as an illustration. To the average person, the large base of the pyramid represents much energy stored compared to the diminishing storage space as you look higher and higher up the pyramid towards its peak. However, those that have studied the actual flow of pyramid energy have seen an upward movement of energy through the peak into the air above. So it's not necessarily true that more energy is flowing at or near the base than at the top. A mysterious flow of energy skyward which disrupts instrumentation on aircraft has caused the Egyptian authorities to forbid flying over the top of the pyramids at Gisa, for safety reasons.
There is more what than anything else in an energy pyramid?
Producers
What organism contains the greatest amount of energy in an energy pyramid?
The lowest; all others expend it at some point, which makes it leave the pyramid/food chain. << The base (producers) because that is the level where energy is first fixed to the ecosystem. ALL levels expend more energy than they fix. >
What does a biomass pyramid present?
Biomass - the total dry weight of the organisms in a trophic levelBiomass Pyramid - a diagram showing the biomass at each trophic level of a food chainA pyramid of biomass shows energy lost in each trophic level while a pyramid of numbers shows the numbers of the organisms in each trophic level
If the bottom of the population pyramid is wider than the top, what does that mean?
there are mums down there
How many vertices does a square pyramid have than a trianglar pyramid?
tringuler pyramid has two base.

Why is the face other than the base on a pyramid always triangular?
That is how a pyramid is defined!That is how a pyramid is defined!That is how a pyramid is defined!That is how a pyramid is defined!
Why is a energy pyramid in the shape of a pyramid?
A energy pryramid shows that each feeding level has less energy than the one below it.
What is a cylinder with 1 base wider than the other?
cone
What solid have more than one edge and less than 10 edges?
A pyramid with a triangular base. It has 6 edges, or a pyramid with a square base, which has 7 edges
How Compare the pyramid of energy with the pyramid of number?
An energy pyramid has the producers at the bottom and the highest order consumers at the top. The bottom of the pyramid is larger than the top of the pyramid because only about 10% of the energy in one level gets to the next level. Refer to the related links for an illustration.
How many more vertices does a square pyramid have than a trianglar pyramid?
A square pyramid has 1 at the top and 4 round the base giving a total of 5 A triangular pyramid has 1 at the top and 3 round the base giving a total of 4 So the square pyramid has 1 more vertex than the triangular pyramid.
Does a pyramid have vertices?
Yes, it has one more vertex than the number of vertices on the polygonal base of the pyramid.
What are the energy levels in an energy pyramid?
energy than secondary, than primary, than chief
