Respuesta :
In adult body , food energy not stored as fat or glycogen is lost as heat.
How is Energy Consumption takes place?
Energy consumption through food differ from one trophic level to another and this trophic level is the key feature of food chain.
What is a Food Chain?
A food chain refers to the transfer sequence of matter and energy in the form of food from organism to organism.
In the food chain, the primary level is occupied by the Green Plants called as Producers as they make their food through the process of Photosynthesis.
From producers, the next trophic level moves to plant eating animals called Herbivores.
Further , the next stage of the chain is occupied by small carnivores animal called Primary Carnivores.
At the top of the chain are those carnivores who are not only dependent on herbivores but also feed small carnivores and thus are referred to as Secondary Carnivores.
When different food chains interact with each other, it result in Food Web as it gives the appearance.
What is the law behind transfer of energy?
The unique feature about the transfer of energy from one trophic level to another trophic level is the loss of 90% of energy and only 10% of energy transferred from one trophic level to another.
This 10% law was given by Lindemann in 1942. According to this law, during the transfer of organic food from one trophic level to another trophic level, only 10% of organic matter is stored as flesh. The remaining is lost during the transfer or broken down in respiration.
