How are trophic level efficiency measured?
Trophic level efficiency is typically measured by calculating the amount of energy transferred from one trophic level to the next. This is done by analyzing the ratio of energy present in the biomass of one trophic level compared to the trophic level below it. The efficiency of energy transfer between trophic levels is usually around 10%, meaning that only around 10% of energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next.
What animal would be at the 2nd trophic level?
The group of organisms that occupy the second trophic level of an ecosystem is the herbivores. The herbivores eat the plants in the first trophic level and are then called primary consumers. -Gallo :)
An organisms position in the sequence of energy transfers in an ecosystem is known as its?
Trophic Level
What are antonyms of trophic level?
The antonyms of trophic level would be non-trophic level or abiotic level, referring to components of an ecosystem that are not part of the food chain or do not involve energy transfer through consumption.
What is the lowest level of the energy pyramid that contains carnivores?
The lowest level of the energy pyramid that contains carnivores is the third trophic level. These carnivores consume herbivores from the second trophic level that feed on producers at the first trophic level.
What trophic level are scavengers?

What trophic level is a cougar?
Its an T1 because its an producer
Why can each trophic level support only about one tenth the amount of the living tissue of the level below?
This is because energy is lost at each trophic level. The energy available to the next trophic level is about 10% of the energy of the previous trophic level.
Are biomass and trophic level related?
Each trophic level contains one-tenth as much biomass as the level below it and ten times as much biomass as the level above it.
What is the trophic level for walrus?
Well, I am guesing either the secondary of third trophic level. If you know the trophic level of clams and shellfish, the walrus is right above that.
What trophic level is a quail in?
The first trophic leval
