Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

A. Producers are able to convert 40% of the sun’s energy into chemical energy.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Energy in an ecosystem must be transferred in the ecosystem. The primary source of energy in an ecosystem is the sun. The terrestrial ecosystem mostly consists of plants and marine ecosystems.

• As energy flow in an ecosystem is unidirectional. It passed from the organism from one tropic level to another. Only 10% of the energy is available to them.
