Question

if a snake receives 200 calories of energy from eating a rabbit how much of that energy would be passed down on to a hawk in the following food chain

Answer 1

20

Step-by-step explanation:

The ecosystem is made of tropic levels that starts from producers and ends on consumers. The producers get the maximum energy from the sun and then transfer only 10% of the total energy to the next tropic levels.

If snake receives 200 calories of the energy from eating a rabbit, then 10% of 200 = 20, would be passed down to the hawk.
