Plz answer this ques.....
Dear Mimansha,
As we know, only 1% of the solar enegy is used by the primary producers or plant anf from there only 10% of the total energy is transferred from one tropic level to its next.
If the energy obtained from sun is 1,000,000 J
Then in first consumer level i.e. herbivore level the energy consumed or utilised will be 1% of 1,000,000 = 10000 J
Therefore, option 1 is correct.
