To solve the problem of how much energy was available at the producer level when 5 J of energy is available to man, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Energy Transfer in Food Chains**: In a food chain, energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next. According to the 10% rule of energy transfer, only about 10% of the energy from one level is passed on to the next level. 2. **Identify the Trophic Levels**: ...
