Question

write chief character of pyramid energy

Answer 1

Definition of an Energy Pyramid

When we talk about the food chain or food web, we typically conjure to mind a lion chasing a gazelle, or perhaps a grazing cow. We imagine one organism being eaten by another and typically associate a large, carnivorous predator at the 'top' of the food chain. While this does show the ecological relationships between organisms, it doesn't exactly show the flow of energy through the ecosystem.

This is where an energy pyramid (sometimes called a trophic pyramid or ecological pyramid) is useful in quantifying the energy transfer from one organism to another along the food chain. Energy decreases as you move through the trophic levels from the bottom to the top of the pyramid.
