If you're referring to the energy cycle pyramid, there are producers (like plants) and consumers (like rabbits). Plants produce the energy via the sun (photosynthesis) and rabbits, in turn, consume the plants. The rabbit gets consumed by a fox, this is all transferring the same originally produced energy from the plants.

What is the bottom layer of a pyramid that represents ecosystem producers and its top layers represent consumers called?

The bottom layer of pyramid that represents ecosystem producers is the ecological pyramids. The top layers represent consumers. In the energy pyramid the bottom levels have more energy than the top levels.


Why quaternary consumers occupy the top possition in the pyramid of energy?

Energy is lost ascending each trophic level of the pyramid of energy. Therefore, when quaternary consumers eat tertiary consumers, most of the energy stored in the tertiary consumers' bodies is lost and only 10-15% is passed on to the quaternary consumers. Quaternary consumers, meanwhile, occupy the top position in the pyramid of energy because nothing preys upon them in turn. (This answer is straight from E2020 answer check please Enjoy :)


What kind of diagram shows the flow of energy among different trophic levels?

Energy pyramid Apex^^^^^


How many trophic levels are in the food chain?

There are four trophic levels in an ecological pyramid. They are primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers.


What are the 4 kinds of ecological pyramind?

The first of the four, is the ecological pyramid. It shows the number of organisms in each of the trophic levels in an ecosystem. At the base of the levels are the producers and at the top of the pyramid are the final consumers. The second is the number pyramid. This also shows the number of organisms in each of the trophic levels but it does not take into consideration the size of each of the organism in the levels. This pyramid has four levels, starting from the bottom is the total number of producers, then the total number of herbivores, third the total number of small carnivores, and finally the total number of large carnivores. The third pyramid is the biomass pyramid. This pyramid is an indication of the total mass of organisms in the trophic levels. There are three levels of biomass in this pyramid. These are producers ( 470.0 g/m2), then herbivores (0.6 g/m2), and last the carnivores ( 0.1 g/m2). And it is possible for the second level to be greater than the third. Last, is the energy pyramid which indicates the total amount of energy that is in the trophic levels. It also is able to show the loss of energy between the trophic levels. The four levels in this pyramid are Producers, Primary consumers, Secondary consumers and at the top are the Tertiary consumers. As energy passes between the levels, such as from producers to primary consumers, much of the energy is lost due to waste and the conversion to heat energy.


Which level of the energy pyramid contains the least energy?

The top level, which consists of tertiary consumers, contains the least energy in the energy pyramid because energy is lost as heat as it moves up the trophic levels.


Complete the energy pyramid?

Energy pyramid represents the flow of energy through different trophic levels in an ecosystem. It typically consists of producers at the base, followed by primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers at the top. The energy pyramid demonstrates the decreasing energy available at each trophic level due to energy loss through metabolism and heat loss.


What information does an energy pyramid show?

An energy pyramid shows the flow of energy through different trophic levels in an ecosystem. It illustrates how energy is transferred from producers to primary consumers, secondary consumers, and so on, with each level representing a decrease in energy as it is transferred up the food chain.


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


What organism feeds on all levels of the energy pyramid?

Omnivores are organisms that feed on multiple levels of the energy pyramid, consuming both plants and animals. They can be found at various trophic levels in an ecosystem, depending on the availability of food sources.


Which type of diagram shows the flow of energy between the different trophic levels of an ecosystem?

A food web or energy pyramid can show the flow of energy between different trophic levels of an ecosystem. These diagrams illustrate how energy is transferred from producers to consumers, and ultimately to decomposers.


Which shows the correct order or increasing trophic level from producer to tertiary consumers?

primary consumers -->secondary consumers -->tertiary consumers
