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.

What type of pyramid shows energy flow through an ecosystem?
A pyramid of energy shows the flow of energy through an ecosystem. It illustrates the decrease in energy available at each trophic level, with producers at the base of the pyramid and top consumers at the peak.
Why is an ecosytem's energy pyramid wide at the base and narrow at the top?
The trophic levels are stacked in blocks, with the block representing producers forming the foundation of the pyramid. The size of the block is proportional to the biomass in each trophic level. The pyramid owes its steep shape to the loss of 90% or so of the energy with each food transfer in the chain. Found in my BIO 100 book. By Campbell Reece Simon.
What level of the energy pyramid is a producer found?
Producers are found at the bottom level of the energy pyramid. They are organisms that can photosynthesize, creating energy from sunlight, and form the foundation of the food chain by providing energy to other organisms.
How are energy pyramids and trophic level alike?
The trophic levels show which organisms are at each level of the energy pyramid. The pyramid is shaped exactly as a pyramid. The lowest level contains the most energy and the most in number and variation of species. The next level only has 10% of the first levels' energy and fewer species. The amount of energy in the first level determines the number of levels possible. The tropical rain forest has the most levels (as many as 4) and a desert has the fewest (as few as 2).

Why is a pyramid the best shape to show how energy move through and ecosystem?
A pyramid can represent the energy transfer in an ecosystem in two ways: First, right side up a pyramid can represent the number or volume of organisms at each level of the food chain. The energy transferred from each organism lower down on the food chain to the next higher up is not 100 percent efficient, so fewer organisms can exist at each higher level of the food chain. Inverted, the pyramid is a simple model of how much total energy it takes to produce a single organism at a level in the food chain. organisms at the bottom taking the least, and those at the top taking the most total energy.
In an energy pyramidthe most energy is available at which level of the pyramid?
in an energy pyramid , the most energy is available at which level of the pyramid
Which level of an energy pyramid has the most available energy?
The producer level has the most available energy.
How does the amount of energy available at one level of an energy pyramid compare to the amount of energy available to the next level?
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.
In a energy pyramid which level has the most available energy?
The producers (such as plants) at the bottom level of an energy pyramid have the most available energy. As you move up the pyramid to higher trophic levels, energy is lost through metabolic processes and heat, resulting in less energy being available to organisms at higher levels.
Why is an energy pyramid shaped as a pyramid?
An energy pyramid is shaped like a pyramid because it represents the flow of energy through an ecosystem, with energy decreasing at each trophic level as it is transferred from one organism to another. The pyramid shape illustrates the decrease in available energy as you move up the food chain, with primary producers at the base having the most energy, followed by herbivores, then carnivores.
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.
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?
Which level represents the most available energy in a food pyramid?
Algae
What has the most energy in the energy pyramid?
Tertiary Consumers and Secondary carnivores
Where is the most energy Available in the energy pyramid?
The most energy in an energy pyramid is typically found at the base, with the primary producers (such as plants) converting sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. Each level up the pyramid contains less energy as it is transferred through the food chain.
In an energy pyramid which group of organism acquires the most energy?
a.first-order consumers b.second-order consumers c.third-order consumers d.decomposers
What level of the energy pyramid contains the most energy?
The bottom of the pyramid contains the most energy.
