NEET Botany Question (2024) — Solution

Question

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 ?

Options

  1. A. 10000 10 ~J
  2. B. 10000 10 4 ~J
  3. C. 10,000 ~J
  4. D. 10,00,000 ~J

Answer

D. 10,00,000 ~J

Step-by-step solution

According to the given pyramid of energy, if 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 T _1 is 10,00,000 ~J . aligned & T_1=10,00,000 ~J \\ & T_2= 10 100 10,00,000=1,00,000 ~J \\ & T_3= 10 100 100000=10,000 ~J \\ & T_4= 10 100 10000=1000 ~J aligned
