• Pyramid of biomass

• Pyramid of energy

• Food web

Answer 1

Pyramid of energy

Explanation:

The pyramid of energy explains the energy stored in an ecosystem by showing the flow of energy at different trophic levels. It represents the amount of energy available at each level, with energy decreasing as it moves from producers to higher consumers. This illustrates the 10% energy transfer law, in which only about 10% of energy is passed to the next trophic level, with the rest lost as heat, effectively explaining energy storage in an ecosystem.
