The approximate amount of energy that is passed from one trophic level to the next is 10%. This is often referred to as the "10% Rule" in ecology, which states that only about 10% of the energy from one trophic level is converted into biomass and available to the next level, while the rest is lost primarily as heat.
As energy is passed through the food chain, some of the energy is lost as heat. What is the approximate amount of energy that is passed from one trophic level to the next?(1 point)
