Sketch Pyramid of energy. Why is pyramid energy upright?
A pyramid of energy is always upright: It is a graphic representation of energy, amount of energy trapped per unit time, and area in different trophic levels of a food chain with producers forming the base and top consumer at the top. An ideal pyramid of energy. Observe that primary producers convert only 1% of the energy from the sunlight available to them into NPP. There is the unidirectional flow of energy in a food chain. As the energy passes from one trophic level to a higher trophic level along the food chain, its amount decreases. So, the pyramid of energy is always upright.
