because which energy is transfered for 3-4 tropic level is enough to do work and after that energy is not enough to do work because only 10% of energy is transfered to next level

Answer:
When the food is processed and then transferred from one individual to the other and from one trophic level to the other one, there is the dissipation of the energy. When the energy that is provided by the food is transported in the three to four levels, there is not enough energy remain to transfer to the next level and that is the main reason for the limitation of the trophic level.
