Question

There are two different food chains in this example:
1. Spinach --> goat --> human --> tiger
2. Spinach --> goat --> tiger
Analyze whether the tiger is at the same level and whether it obtains the same amount of energy in both the food chains.

Answer 1

In the first food chain, tiger stands at a secondary consumer level whereas in the second food chain, it stands at primary consumer level; hence energy obtained in the second food chain is more than in the first.



In the first food chain, tiger stands at a tertiary consumer level whereas in the second food chain, it stands at secondary consumer level; hence energy obtained in the second food chain is more than in the first.



In both the food chains, tiger stands at a tertiary consumer level, because tiger is always a tertiary consumer; hence it obtains same amount of energy in both food chains.
