Answer:
Organisms at different tropic levels are at different levels of the food chain. The Organisms must get enough energy to sustain life and reproduce. 90% of the energy an organism gets from the lower level is used up in life processes. Only 10% is available for the next highest tropic level.
"loss of energy at each trophic level". In any food chain, a great amount of energy is lost as we move from primary producer to the highest consumer. ... Thus, the number of organisms decreases as we move from producers to the consumers in a food chain.
