Foodchain Shows trophic relationships, showing which organisms eats which organisms
and shows the flow of energy from producers
State one reason why the highest trophic level has a smaller population
- Highest trophic level received less energy as energy is lost at each level
Explain the differences in the way energy and nutrients are transferred
within ecosystems
- Energy can enter and leave the ecosystem
- Energy is not recycled
- Energy is supplied in the form of light
- Light energy is converted into chemical energy
- Energy flows through the food chains
- Most is lost as heat
- Efficiency of conversion is typically 10%
