Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Aplicar la ley de la 10%

En una cadena alimentaria, solo se transmite aproximadamente el 10% de la energía de un nivel trófico al siguiente.

Step2: Calcular energía para el segundo sub - problema

Si los productores tienen 10000 kcal y el consumidor primario obtiene el 10% de esa energía, entonces la energía que obtiene el consumidor primario es $10000\times0.1 = 1000$ kcal.

Step3: Calcular energía para el primer sub - problema

Si el consumidor primario tiene 145 kcal y el consumidor secundario obtiene el 10% de esa energía, entonces la energía que obtiene el consumidor secundario es $145\times0.1=14.5$ kcal.

Answer:

  1. 14.5 kcal
  2. 1000 kcal
