Answer 8

Why is the energy pyramid not a smooth geometric shape like a triangle but, rather, looks like narrow blocks stacked on top of wider blocks?(1 point)
Responses

A triangular pyramid would reflect a food pyramid rather than energy flow.
A triangular pyramid would reflect a food pyramid rather than energy flow.

Energy decreases at each level, and only 10% remains from the previous level.
Energy decreases at each level, and only 10% remains from the previous level.

Lower levels have far more individuals, so the shape reflects their population size.
Lower levels have far more individuals, so the shape reflects their population size.

The sizes of each shape show how much is consumed (or produced) at each level.
