Less than 1000, in any case, since some energy is lost. The exact amount lost varies from case to case.

What energy is available each step up the pyramid?

As you move up the energy pyramid from trophic level to trophic level, around 10% of the energy is transferred from one level to the next. This means that only 10% of the energy is available to the next trophic level, with the remaining 90% being lost as heat or used by the organism for its own metabolism.


What makes up the bottom level of an energy pyramid?

The bottom level of an energy pyramid is made up of producers, such as plants and algae, that convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. These organisms form the foundational layer of the food chain by providing energy for all other organisms in the ecosystem.


Why only about 20 percent of the energy available in a plant is transferred to the primary consumer?

Because the plant needs to use energy to live, and if the plant uses up the energy the herbivores can not receive it. There for some of the energy is used for the plant and what ever is left over is received by the herbivore.


Why is mercury poor at sharing electrons?

Mercury has 80 electrons distributed in 6 energy levels,; namely:First Energy Level: 2Second Energy Level: 8Third Energy Level: 18Fourth Energy Level: 32Fifth Energy Level: 18Sixth Energy Level: 2Accordingly, Mercury has on the outer shell 2 electrons to share with in any chemical reaction by an ionic bond.


What is energy that makes you move called?

The energy that makes you move is called kinetic energy. It is the energy associated with an object in motion.

What happens to the amount of energy available as you move up the food web from producer to tertiary consumer?

It will decrease. The amount of energy that a producer makes will be used to maintain the needs of the primary consumer. That reduced amount will be used by the secondary consumer for their needs (growth and reproduction). That really leaves very little to be passed on. That is the reason why the numbers get smaller and smaller as you go up the food chain. There just isn't enough energy for many in the third level.
