could you please explain the 10% law of energy transfer

its not clear.....

 R U ONLINE

 Sry dunno

10 % law of energy  transfer - In a food chain , always 10 % of energy passes from one trophic level to another .

•  When green plants are eaten by primary consumers , a great deal of energy is lost as heat to the environment ,some amount goes into digestion and in doing work and the rest goes towards growth and reproduction , An average of 10% of the food eaten is turned into its own body and made available for the next level of consumers .
  
• Therefore 10% can be taken as the average value for the amount of organic matter that is present at each step and reaches the next level of consumers .....
  

Hope You got this ....!!!!!!

i will explain  a/to  the  pic.......

in  the  pic......as  sunlight reaches  the leaf surface onlyy  1%  is  absorbed  in  photosynthesis....aftrr  tht  sayy if  1000J  of  energy  is  produced and as  per  the  pic..DEER  eats  up the  grass...then  as  per  KIDMANNE'S  LAW  OF  ENERGY TRANSMISSION...ie...10% law  of  energy----only 10% of 1000j  will be attained  by  it....

..ie..it will  gt 100j  of energy n simmilarly  LION  will  fetch 10j  of energy...hope  u gt it..!!:))

n  due to this  decreasinn  pattern  of  energy succession  only---its  thrr  tht there  are  limited members  in each food chain...  hope  this helps..!!:))

thnkkx  ma'am....!!:)

 producer               primary consumer                  secondry consumer

1000J                              100J                                        10J

as u see . only 10% of energy is transfered into other . and the left over 90% is realesed as heat
