A forest ecosystem having a lot of green plants has some foxes, lions and rabbits in it. If the sun provides 1000 joule of energy to the plants then how much energy will be transferred to fox through the food chain?
Answers
Explanation:
- in ecosystems the ENERGY is changing them form one organisms to another by sunlight, competition , symbiosis, and many others relationship
- like pray and predatator
pray and predator the fox willl receive directly 500 julrs of ENERGY because predator have 1000 joule of energy predator will save energy and half use for hos life activities so pray and pradater will receive 500 joules means fox wll receive 500 joules of ENERGY
- in competion
the fox will rreceive250 lof energy because the energy is trans form one organisms to another by different organisms by the relation of changing the ENERGY and lions ,rabits ,
this relationship plants will receive 1000 of energy you give the 500 joules of ENERGY and 500 joules plants use for it self and when pray like rabbit eats the plant then rabit will require less energy for its serive they will gain 500 joules form the plants and rabit then they will eat an by fox fox have total AMOUNT of ENERGY is 500 in which rabit use energy 250 fpr self but store energy 250 joules for future and the fox eaten then fox receive 125 jouls and the will eatan by another predator and the process continues......
wish you all the best
