Chhattisgarh PMTChhattisgarh PMT 2006

Solution:

Pyramid of energy in a forest ecosystem is always upright. This type of pyramid shows energy accumulation pattern at different trophic levels.

Thus, there is noted a gradual decrease in the energy content at successive trophic level from producers to consumers.
