Answer:

Increases

Step-by-step explanation:

The energy level is maximum at the organisms occupying the base of the energy pyramid i.e., the producers and they are the most numerous organisms, while the consumers occupying the higher levels have less energy. As energy content keeps on decreasing so the number of organisms also decrease, at higher levels.
