"Rule of 10" Only ~10% passes to next Therefore, ~90% LOSS at each trophic Tertiary consumers Secondary consumers Primary consumers Producers 10 kcal 100 kcal 10,000 kcal = 0.1% of plant 1,000,000 kcal of sunlight = 1% of plant e 1,000 kcal = 10% of plant 2. Suppose that a hard winter freeze kills off 50% of the primary producers (dandelions) in the above trophic pyramid. What would happen to the abundance of rodents and or snakes in this community? Would there be enough energy to support tertiary consumers? If so, how much energy would be available?
