An ecological pyramid is a graphical representation that illustrates the distribution of energy, biomass, or numbers of organisms across different trophic levels in an ecosystem. Typically, it has a pyramid shape, with producers at the base, followed by primary consumers, secondary consumers, and so on, reflecting the decrease in energy and biomass as one moves up the levels. This structure highlights the inefficiencies of energy transfer, as only about 10% of energy is passed to the next trophic level. Ecological pyramids help in understanding the dynamics and health of ecosystems.
