The correct answer is option C

Reason-

The energy flow at each stage of the trophic level is linked to the change in entropy. Usually the energy decreases with the increase in the trophic level which causes a disorder in the system that is known as entropy. This disorder is basically created due to loss of energy in the metabolic processes in successive trophic level.
