The amount of energy transferred to frog is 10% of the energy contained in grasshopper.
This is a representation of energy levels and distribution in a food chain in an Ecosystem. When a group of organism represent the same level in a food chain, in an ecosystem ,this is trophic level. Food chain represent a linear representation of nutrients and therefore energy distributions in an ecosystem.
Basically, in an ecosystem, there is always reduction in energy transfer from one trophic level to another by 10%. This is because, as the energy is transferred from the producer (green plants) to the primary consumer, the hopper, only 10% of the available energy will pass through to the hopper because 90% of the energy will be used by the green plants for metabolic and other physiologic activities. As this is transferred to the next trophic level, the Frog, this will be reduced (for the same reasons) so that 10% of the energy received by the grasshopper is transferred to the frog.
Practically, if 100,000Kcal of energy was obtained by hopper from the primary producer,10,000kcal(10%) of 100,000 will be transferred to frog.
This 10% occurs at each trophic levels.
