- Flow of energy and the 10 percent law
- Biological magnification
- Ozone layer depletion and CFCs
- Waste management: biodegradable and non-biodegradable substances
What examiners usually ask
- What is the 10 percent law? If 10,000 J of energy is available at the producer level, how much reaches the third trophic level?
- Why are harmful pesticides found in the highest concentration in human beings in a food chain?
- How is ozone formed in the upper atmosphere and why is its depletion a concern?
Exam tip
The energy-flow numerical and biological magnification are the two most repeated items; remember that energy flow is unidirectional and that a food chain rarely exceeds four trophic levels because of the 10 percent law.
