Why is the energy lower in each trophic level

Sagot :

Answer:

Only small proportion of energy in the biomass of organisms in one trophic level will ever become part of the biomass of organisms in the next trophic level.

Explanation:

Energy decreases as it moves up trophic levels because energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms from the next level.
