Please answer. Ty!

Only about 10 percent of the energy in an organism is passed on to the next level of a food chain. Look at this food chain: grass → rabbit → hawk

What percentage of the energy stored by the grass is passed on to the hawk?

Grass passes 10% of its energy to rabbit.
Rabbit will pass 10% of the energy which it got from grass. I.e 10% of 10% which is 1%
