Grass → Deer → Tiger
In this food chain, the biomass of grass is 1 tonne. The tiger biomass will be:
1.Because the energy moves progressively through the various trophic levels and is no longer available to the previous trophic level. The energy captured by autotrophs does not revert back to the solar input.
2.Pesticides, used for crop rotection when washed down into the soil/water body, are absorbed by the plant/producer along with water and minerals.
3.Being non-biodegradable these chemicals get accumulated progressively in the food chain and enter our body.
