Question

Give reason for the following

The number of organisms at each trophic level is more than the number of organisms at the next higher level.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer would be "loss of energy at each trophic level". ... Decreased energy levels at higher trophic level can complement the survival of less number of organisms as compared to the lower trophic level. Thus, the number of organisms decreases as we move from producers to the consumers in a food chain.
