Question

The pyramid of energy is always upright

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

An energy pyramid is a graphical representation designed to show the biomass or bio productivity at each trophic level in a given ecosystem. An energy pyramid is always upright because when energy flows from a particular trophic level, some energy is lost as heat at each step. Thus, the total amount of energy available for utilisation in the top levels is always less than the energy available in the lower levels. Therefore in the pyramid of energy in which each bar indicates the amount of energy present at each trophic level in a given time

So the given statement is true.
