All of the energy that enters an organism is not available to the next trophic level. This is because while the organism has the energy they use most of the energy up before the next level eats that level.
Because the animal uses so much of the energy it only saves a little bit and that's the energy we get from food
Most of the energy is used up by the predator
This is because organisms use much of the energy that they consume for life processes, such as respiration, movement, and reproduction.
Because every organism, upon consuming a resource, must expend some energy in order to digest/process that resource. Thus not all energy is passed from trophic level to trophic level.
because by eating a whole animal you only receive 10% of its energy. the other 90% goes to living the animals life
Because energy is used by the prey through movement, respiration and growth so that by the time the predator eats the animal little energy remains.
because only some part is passed on in the form of food to next trophic level
when energy is transferred to a higher trophic level some of the energy is trued into heat and is released
between 5-20%
9o% of energy is lost at each level
Only about 10% of the energy is transferred from one trophic level to another.
1. some of the organisms in a trophic level excape being eaten, so they die and decompose, therefore their energy does not pass to a height trophic level. 2. most energy is not transferred because it is lost as heat.
Trophic levels are the positions of organisms in a food chain. Energy is transferred through the trophic levels through ingestion at each level.
1%
i think 10%
Some energy transferred at each successive trophic level enters the environment as heat.
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.

No. About TEN (10) percent of the energy available within one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level the rest of it is used to grow and develop, except in plants because plants use 100% or close to 100% of the sun's energy to grow and develop.
ten percent

The energy is transferred from a lower trophic level to a higher trophic level when resources are consumed.
Some energy transferred at each successive trophic level enters the environment as heat.
