What else can I help you with?
What type of organism is at the top of the energy pyramid?
Apex predatores.
What is the organism that is at the top of the energy pyramid?
Any plant. The energy pyramid starts with the organism with the most direct energy from the the sun, so from top to bottom, a simple example could be: oak tree, squirrel, hawk. Make sense?
What do the arrows represent in an energy pyramid?
It represent the food pyramid and the bottom organism eats less as the top organism eats more.(basically everything on the bottom)
Is it true organism at the top of a pyramid have least amount energy?
Not exactly they get less energy from the animals they consume.
Why is there less of energy at the top of an energy pyramid?
yes, there is less energy at the top of an energy pyramid
Why are there usually fewer organism in the top levels of an energy pyramid?
because it shows energy transfer and how there's more energy at the bottom of the pyramid with the producer and less and less energy as the consumers eat them because they burn out that energy
Would green algae be found at the top of an energy pyramid?
No, green algae would not be found at the top of an energy pyramid. They are producers that form the base of the pyramid, converting sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. Organisms higher up in the pyramid, like herbivores and carnivores, consume the green algae for energy.
What is an energy pyrimad?
An energy pyramid is a graphical representation of the energy flow in a specific ecosystem. It shows how energy is transferred from one organism to another through feeding relationships, with energy decreasing as it moves up the pyramid from producers to consumers to top predators.
Does the organism at the top of energy pyramid have the most energy available to them?
No. Energy will always get lost on it's way up the food chain. This is why there is much more grass than there are Bison, and many more Bison than there are Lions. But the creature at the top probably has a richer source of energy available to them, it's much easier to get energy out of a cow's flesh than to get it out of grass because the cow has already done all the hard work of digesting the grass.
Which organism receives the most energy on the pyramid of energy?
The energy pyramid is a way of gaining a conceptual understanding of energy flow in an ecosystem. There isn't really any animal at the top of the pyramid. Ultimately, the biggest animals die and are consumed by detritivores that would "normally" be placed at the bottom of the pyramid. So it's really a cycle.
Look at the food web below. Which organism would be at the top of the energy pyramid for this ecosystem?
Hawk
Where is a Manatee on the energy pyramid?
the manatee is on the top of the pyramid
