Solution

The correct option is C Pyramid of energy

Pyramid of energy represents amount of energy in different trophic levels. It is always upright because the energy trapped by the producers (autotrophs) is the highest and energy decreases from one trophic level to another due to its loss in form of heat until, it is no longer sufficient to sustain another trophic level.
