Question

Plz I need help with this!!

Explain how entropy relates to the amount of energy that is available in the different trophic levels of a food chain

Answer 1

Entropy is the tendency of a system towards a larger number of random arrangements. Overall, entropy must increase during processes, so a system will tend towards greater disorder. The energy available for organisms decreases from one trophic level to another, because some of the energy is dissipated as heat from each level to the next because of that tendency toward disorder.

Answer 2

There ya go!!

Step-by-step explanation:

Entropy is defined as the measure of heat that is available in any kind of system. When moving towards the next levels in the food chain, the distribution of heat will be less at each stage and at the lower levels of food chain the heat energy that is produced will be high and the value of entropy will be less.
