(B) 10% of the original energy from the Sun

(C) 10% of the plant's energy

(D) 0.9% of the plant's energy

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: The correct answer is C)  10% of the plant's energy.

In an ecosystem, there are various trophic levels, which form the part of the food chain. Producer like plants forms the first trophic level as they synthesize their own food via photosynthesis.

The energy from producers is transferred to the primary consumers. It is only 10% of the producer's energy.

This is in accordance with the 10% law of energy transfer. According to this law, only 10% of the energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next trophic level in an ecosystem. This is because the rest of the energy is utilized by the organism or released as heat in the environment.

Thus, option C) is the right answer.
Answer 2
Answer: c. 10% of the plant's energy is passed on. then 10% of the primary consumer's energy goes on to the secondary consumer and so fourth

The researcher in this study , reaching to such an inference must have observed and noted the fungi growth with the application of water for several days thereby controlling other variables (growth factor) . Since his/her finding is based on observation and research, this statement "water has increased the growth of fungi" can be considered as an inference.
if you're talking about the experiment; conclusion.
but if you're referring to the fungi; bacteria.
