Most of the water surface of a lake is covered with algae. This algae is part of the food chain which also includes small fish, bird, larvae and big fish. Which of the following will obtain the maximum energy?
(a) big fish
(b) bird
(c) larvae
(d) small fish

उत्तर
larvae
Larvae feed on algae for their nutrition, so they get the energy they require directly from the producers. Thus, they get the maximum energy among all the consumers.
