Use the model here to describe the transfer of matter and flow of energy from one trophic level to another within an ecosystem. All of the following must be addressed in your response to receive full credit: a. Discuss the transfer of biomass when one organism eats another. Use your knowledge of digestion to discuss how food is broken down and used by the consumer. B. Explain what happens to the energy that is not transferred from one organism to another. C. Explain why there are typically fewer organisms at the top of an energy pyramid. D. Use specific numbers and calculations to support your explanation

Respuesta :

The model here is not found here but matter and energy flow in the food pyramid from lower trophic levels to higher trophic levels.

What is a food pyramid?

A food pyramid is a diagram that represents the trophic relationships between species in a given ecosystem.

Biomass can be transferred when one organism eats another because life forms are composed of macronutrients such as proteins, carbohydrates and fats (lipids).

Digestion is a metabolic process where larger macronutrients are degraded onto smaller components that can be used to build body structures.
