Bottom, ProducerTop, Tertiary/ Carnivores
Less kilo calories being transfered as the trophic level rises
humans are the top predator in the ecological pyramid.
No.
The ecological pyramid is basically the food chain. So, the producers (plants) are at the bottom, then herbivores (plant eaters), then above them are the omnivores or carnivores, and then the most powerful and top of the food chain animals are at the top of the pyramid.
The bottom layer of pyramid that represents ecosystem producers is the ecological pyramids. The top layers represent consumers. In the energy pyramid the bottom levels have more energy than the top levels.
All pyramids are smaller at the top. It's how they're constructed. Every step of energy transformation has loss. Progress through the energy chain, the amount of energy transferred would unavoidably degrade. As the chain progresses, it gets narrower to a pyramid shape.
It is in the shape of a pyramid to show at the bottom it is big which gives 10% and then it gives off smaller and then smaller amounts of energy to make the point at the top.
