Question

On the diagram below, what percentage of energy (from the choices in blue on the left) is transferred from a producer to a: (A) secondary consumer, (B) tertiary consumer, (C) quaternary consumer?

Answer 1

ok lets see

the producer takes 100% from the sun, and gives 10% percent of that to the primary consumer (10%), first we have to be clear on the fact that as we go higher the amount of energy derived is lesser, so the secondary consumer would take 1% of the producers energy, the tertiary would take 0.1% and the quatenary would take 0.01%...........that should be it
