At each trophic level in a food chain, a large portion of the energy is utilized for the maintenance of organisms which occur at that trophic level and lost as heat. As a result of this, organisms in each trophic level pass on less and less energy to the next trophic levels, than they receive.

What roles do trophic levels play in the transfer of energy within food chains and food webs?
Trophic levels represent the position of an organism in a food chain or web based on its feeding habits. They help to demonstrate the flow of energy within an ecosystem, showing how energy is transferred from producers to primary consumers, then to secondary consumers, and so on. Trophic levels are important for understanding how energy moves through an ecosystem and how changes in one level can impact the rest of the system.
What trophic level must have more of than others?
:) The 1st trophic level has more energy. The first trophic level consists of producers(plants and algae). They has more energy because they create their own food (photosynthesis). Hope this answer helps :)
Different trophic levels?
Trophic levels represent the feeding positions in a food chain or web. Examples include producers (plants), primary consumers (herbivores), secondary consumers (carnivores), and decomposers (detritivores). Each level transfers energy and nutrients as one organism consumes another.
How many trophic levels can monkeys occupy in a food chain?
Monkeys can only occupy one which is the secondary consumer
