Answer:

1100

Step-by-step explanation:

There is 10% of total energy in each increasing trophic level. 10,000 / 10 = 1,000 ,so there are 1,000 units of energy in trophic level 2.

1,000 / 10 = 100, so there are 100 units of energy in trophic level 3.

1,000 + 100 units of combined energy would be 1,100 units of energy.

Hope this helps!
