Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: A
From the food chain, the energy flows from the producers to the primary consumer to the secondary consumers and about 90% of the energy is lost in the process of this transfer. Hence, the energy level by the time it gets to the secondary consumers, there is less energy transferred to the decomposers.
