Explain the following with suitable example
a. What type of changes occur in amount of energy during its transfer from plants to apex consumers?
Answers
Answer:
Energy is lost as it gets transferred from one organism to another. The efficiency of this energy is measured by NPE and TLTE.
# Energy decreases as it moves up from one trophic level to another because energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organism of one trophic level consumes the organisms of another trophic level.
# Trophic Level Transfer Efficiency (TLTE) measures the amount of energy transferred in each trophic level.
# Net Production Efficiency (NPE) measures how effectively the released energy is utilized in each trophic level.
