What pyramid represents the amount of energy or matter that exists in each level of a food web?
a food web pyramid
Why are the numbers of organisms smaller at high levels of an energy pyramid?
The energy pyramid shows how the amount of useful energy, food, decreases as organisms in that level use it. Even though a lot of energy may be taken in at any level, more energy in the form of food that is available to the next level, is stored on the bottom level and decreases at each level as you move to the top of the pyramid. Thus, there is much less energy to support organisms at the top, so there are fewer in most communities.
What makes up the base of any energy pyramid?
eaither producer's carnivores herbivores or scavenger's
How does the amount of energy change in a food chain?
The energy will go down because the energy keeps getting stored in the cells of the plants or animal that has the energy, so when an other animal eats that plant or animal it gets less of the energy the other creature has. An energy pyramid starts at the bottom with a producer. This is it's widest point, because it has the most energy.
