Answer 2

thank u:}

Answer 3

Always remember the 10% rule, if 10,000 J of energy is emitted by the sun.. 1,000 is absorbed by plants(primary producers) and then 10% of that is taken by primary consumers, i.e 100 J.

Secondary consumers would take 10% of that, or 10J.

Total loss would be 100% -> 10%(plants) -> 1%(Primary consumers) -> 0.1%(secondary consumers)

So its most likely D.
