The energy stored in the insect comes from the plant through a series of transfers in the food chain. Plants convert sunlight into chemical energy via photosynthesis, which is then consumed by insects, storing a fraction of that energy in their bodies. When a bird eats the insect, it can access this stored energy, but typically only about 10% of the energy from the plant is passed on through each trophic level due to energy loss from metabolic processes and heat. Thus, the bird utilizes a small portion of the original energy the plant produced.
What else can I help you with?
If an insect eats a plant and a bird eats an insect about how much energy from the plant is stored in the insect for the bird to use?
answer is 1 percent b/c the insect gets 10 percent of the plant's energy, and only 10 percent of that 10 percent is available for the bird

How the sun's energy reaches a cat that eats a bird?
The sun's energy is captured by plants during photosynthesis, which are then eaten by the bird. When the cat consumes the bird, it obtains the stored energy from the plant indirectly through the bird it consumed.
How does a bird and a insect help a plant with its process?
Humming bird and honey bee help in the pollination of plants.
How does the sun's energy reach a cat that eats a bird?
The sun's energy reaches a cat that eats a bird through the process of photosynthesis. Plants absorb sunlight and convert it into chemical energy, which is stored in their tissues. When a bird eats these plants, it consumes the stored energy, and when the cat eats the bird, it obtains that energy. Thus, the cat ultimately receives energy from the sun through the food chain.
What are some food chains in the forest?
evergreen: plant -to- small insect -to- bird -to- larger carnivorous mammal or just take out the insect tropical: plant -to- insect -to- small mammal or small bird -to- carnivorous mammal... or snake food chains and food webs ALWAYS start with a producer (plant) and end with a carnivor (meat eating animal) or omnivor (plant& animal eating animal)
What is an effect of the reduction in bird populations?
Apex-Increased insect populations
Is a shearwater an animal insect bird or fish?
It is a bird.
Is a dragonfly a bird?
No its an insect.
Is a fly a bird?
No, it is an insect.
Food chain of thrush cabbage and caterpillar?
The thrush eats the caterpillar, which in turn feeds on the cabbage plant. This forms a simple food chain where the energy is transferred from the plant to the insect, and then to the bird.
How can plants cross pollinate?
By landing pollen grains of another compatible genotype on the stigma of a plant by insect, bird, water, wind or mammals
