Food Chain

A great deal of energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by the next level. Suppose in Chefland the energy reduces by a factor of $K$, i.e, if initially, the energy is $X$, then the transfer of energy to the next tropic level is $\lfloor \frac{X} {K} \rfloor$. This limits the length of foodchain which is defined to be the highest level receiving non
