kcal, how much energy was passed on? *

10% energy was passed on if the producer has 40,000 kcal of energy and the primary consumer 4000 Kcal.

The right answer is option 2.

Explanation:

The producer is the initiator of food chain in a food chain and pyramid.

The amount of energy transferred or pass on to the other level or higher level is 10%. The 90% percent energy is being consumed by organism of the trophic level in carrying out metabolic processes, reproduction etc.

The heat gets dissipated only a small amount reaches the other trophic level.

This logic is also called 10% rule of energy transfer.

So, the producer has 40,000 Kcal of energy

primary consumer comes just after producer as it is a herbivore.

so,

x 40000

= 4000 Kcal

Thus 10% of the energy is passed on.

surface mining destroys mountain tops, landscapes, forests and wildlife habitats. on top of that, it leads to soil erosion and destruction of agricultural land. the landscape changes can also disrupt river channels and streams, which leads to flooding. which, can destroy plant life and other animals as well.
