Вопрос 26

In this model, what best explains why an energy pyramid narrows as you move from the producers toward the top predators?

  1. Top predators are physically larger, so fewer of them fit in the pyramid
  2. Producers hide most of their energy from consumers
  3. Energy is destroyed as it moves between levels
  4. About ninety percent of the energy is lost at each transfer, mostly as heatПравильный ответ

Объяснение

The ten percent rule means each higher level receives only a small share of the energy held below it, so the pyramid gets narrower with height. The claim that energy is destroyed fails, because the energy leaves the web as heat rather than ceasing to exist.
