Consider the pyramid of energy of an ecosystem given below: Consider the pyramid of energy of an ecosystem given below: If T_4 is equivalent to 1000 J , what is the value at T_1 ?
If T4T_4 is equivalent to 1000 J , what is the value at T1T_1 ?

Options

  1. A1000010 J\frac{10000}{10} \mathrm{~J}
  2. B1000010×4 J\frac{10000}{10} \times 4 \mathrm{~J}
  3. C10,000 J10,000 \mathrm{~J}
  4. D10,00,000 J10,00,000 \mathrm{~J}

Correct answer

D. 10,00,000 J10,00,000 \mathrm{~J}

Step-by-step solution

According to the given pyramid of energy, if T4\mathrm{T}_4 is equivalent to 1000 J , then according to the 10 percent law, which states that only 10 percent of energy is transferred to each trophic level from the lower trophic level, the value at T1\mathrm{T}_1 is 10,00,000 J10,00,000 \mathrm{~J}. T1=10,00,000 JT2=10100×10,00,000=1,00,000 JT3=10100×100000=10,000 JT4=10100×10000=1000 J\begin{aligned} & T_1=10,00,000 \mathrm{~J} \\ & T_2=\frac{10}{100} \times 10,00,000=1,00,000 \mathrm{~J} \\ & T_3=\frac{10}{100} \times 100000=10,000 \mathrm{~J} \\ & T_4=\frac{10}{100} \times 10000=1000 \mathrm{~J}\end{aligned}
