Explain Energy Transfer Between Levels Practice Test

Decomposers take most of the energy directly from producers, leaving none for mice.

Only a small fraction of energy (about 10%) passes to each higher trophic level, so little energy is available to support many top predators.

Energy increases at higher trophic levels because predators concentrate energy from many prey.

Most energy transfers (about 90%) to predators, so only a few prey are needed to support many hawks.
