Q. The loss of energy as one proceeds from one trophic level to the next higher level is approximately

AMUAMU 2010Ecosystem

Solution:

Lindemann gave the law of $10\%$ for energy flow ($10\%$ energy transfer law), ie, only $10\%$ of total energy received by one trophic level is transferred to next trophic level. The loss of energy as one proceeds from one trophic level to the next higher level is $90$ per cent.
