Answer:

If 10,000 joules of energy is available to the producer, then only 1000 joules of energy will be available to the primary consumer and only 100 joules of energy will be available to the secondary consumer. The energy available with the tertiary consumer will be 10 joules of energy.

If 10,000 J solar energy falls on green plants in a terrestrial ecosystem, the percentage of solar energy will be converted into food energy is 100 J

Explanation:

Green plants in a terrestrial ecosystem convert 1% of the total solar energy falling on it into food

These are the producers or autotrophs

Then there are Primary consumers, Secondary consumers and Tertiary consumers in the food chain

In each of these step only 10% energy is transferred but from sun to the plants only 1% of the energy is converted into food

Thus, if 10,000 J of solar energy falls on green plants in a terrestrial ecosystem, the energy converted into food energy will be

= 1% of 10000 J

= 10000/100 J

= 100 J

Hope this answer is helpful.

Q: In a food chain, if 10000 joules of energy is available to the producer, how much energy will be available to the secondary consumer to transfer it to the tertiary consumer.
