Answer 1

To calculate the adjusted amount of energy that is available to organisms that are one trophic level above producers, you would use:

**Gross primary productivity minus the amount of organic material used in respiration.**

So the correct response is:

**gross primary productivity minus amount of organic material used in respiration.**
