Answer:
it will only be its 2%. as the trophic level of energy in food chain decreases at each stage. always remember that the quantum of available energy in a food chain successively gets decrease at each trophic level as a result of waste of energy as heat.. this can be explained on the basis of second law of thermodynamics. according to this law, transformation of energy from one form to the another is efficient and inverse dissipation of unavailable energy. this phenomenon( loss of energy at successive trophic levels) restricts size of food chain in an ecosystem to maximum of four or five steps.
