(04.01 MC) Use the energy pyramid below to answer the following question. Energy pyramid with groups of organisms stacked on top of each other with the largest group on the bottom and the smallest group on the top. The largest, bottom group has a tree, grass, flowering plants, and crops. The second group, directly above the bottom, has butterfly, grasshopper, ant, caterpillar, and bee. The third group, directly above the second group, has rat, sparrow, and frog. The fourth group, directly above the third group, has snake and owl. The fifth group is on the top, above the fourth group, and only has eagles. © CK-12 Foundation 2022 Creative Commons, CC BY-SA 4.0 Which statement describes the relationship between the law of conservation of energy and the energy pyramid shown? The amount of available energy decreases as you move up the pyramid because some energy is transferred to the environment as heat. The environment can sustain more organisms as the trophic level increases because more energy conversions have taken place. The number of grasshoppers exceeds the number of rats because their source of energy is the sun and fewer energy conversions have taken place. The population of tertiary consumers is greater than that of the secondary consumers because they occupy the highest trophic level in the energy pyramid.
