∙ 13y agoEnergy is reduced as you go further up the pyramid.
For example, let's start at the bottom of the food chain.
Autotrophs get their energy directly from the sun, so they have the most energy.
heterotrophs eat autotrophs. There is less energy in the heterotroph because the energy is released as heat, used for growth, or used as respiration.
