Energy transfer between trophic levels in aquatic systems is generally
A) less efficient than terrestrial food pyramids.
B) less efficient than a detritus food web because aquatic systems lack fungi.
C) inverted, in which more energy is transferred from one trophic level up to the next.
D) more efficient than terrestrial food pyramids.
Question 2
