Vedclass · Answer

(B) According to the $10\%$ Law of energy transfer in an ecosystem,only $10\%$ of the energy available at one trophic level is transferred to the next higher trophic level.Given that the energy at the $1^{	ext{st}}$ trophic level (producers) is $10,000 \, J$.Energy at the $2^{	ext{nd}}$ trophic level = $10\%$ of $10,000 \, J$.Calculation: $(10 / 100) 	imes 10,000 = 1,000 \, J$.Therefore,the energy available to the organisms of the $2^{	ext{nd}}$ trophic level is $1,000 \, J$.

What will be the amount of energy available to the organisms of the $2^{\text{nd}}$ trophic level of a food chain,if the energy available at the first trophic level is $10,000 \, J$?
