Question

If 6,000 units of energy are available at the producer trophic level, how many units of energy would be available at the other trophic levels? explain why

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey The Transfer of Energy to Higher Trophic Levels

What happens to the NPP that is produced and then stored as plant biomass? On average, it is consumed or decomposed. You already know the equation for aerobic respiration:

C6H12O6 + 6 O2 -------- 6 CO2 + 6 H2O

In the process, metabolic work is done and energy in chemical bonds is converted to heat energy. If NPP was not consumed, it would pile up somewhere. Usually this doesn't happen, but during periods of earth history such as the Carboniferous and Pennsylvanian, enormous amounts of NPP in excess of consumption accumulated in swamps.
