III More energy is lost
IV The size of the organisms increase
A I and II only C III and IV only
B II and III only D I and IV only
3 The diagram below shows a process in an experiment to test the presence of starch in a
leaf.

B Light energy → Heat energy
C Light energy → Chemical energy
D Kinetic energy → Heat energy
•
54% 31%
Bird Snake
The diagram above shows the percentage of energy obtained by the bird and the snake.
However, the percentage of energy has been decreased from the bird to the snake. It is because
some energy is lost as heat when the organism carries out its life processes such as
I Reproduction
II Growth
III Respiration
IV Excretion
A I, II and III only C I, III and IV only
B I, II and IV only D I,II,III and IV
