Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

there is a the rule that only 10% of the energy is transferred from one trophic level to the other.

this means that only 10% of the food an organism eats is passed onto the next organism. eg only 10% of the energy in a plant is transferred to a rabbit that eats the plant. After that if a wolf eats the rabbit only 10% of the energy of food will pass on to the wolf.
