According to the 10 percent law, only 10% of the energy is transferred to each trophic level from its lower trophic level. If 10,000 joules of energy is available to the producer, then only 1000 joules (10000 × 10 / 100 = 1000) of energy will be available to the primary consumer and only 100 joules (1000 × 10 / 100 = 100) of energy will be available to T2 organism.
