B. 50%
C. 75%
D. 90%

Answer 1

In ecological terms, when discussing energy transfer between trophic levels, approximately 90% of energy is lost at each level due to metabolic processes, heat, and other factors. Therefore, the amount of energy that is typically transferred to the next trophic level is about 10%.

So, in response to your question, the correct answer would be:

D. 90%
