which organism gets more energy a carnivore or a omnivore
omnivore
why do organism at the top of the pyramid don't get as much energy as the bottom
because only 10% of the energy gets passed down to the next organism
what is the 10% percent rule
its the percentage of energy that gets passed to the next organism.

herbivore
which trophic level has the highest energy
the secondary consumers
if an organism has 20000 grams of energy and it was passed down 5 times in a food web how much energy does it have now?
