Food chains usually contain no more than four trophic levels because _____________________.
only a single species of herbivore feeds on each plant species.
predator species tend to be less diverse and fewer in numbers compared to prey species.
local extinction of a species causes the extinction of the other species higher up the food chain.
most of the energy is lost when organisms of the higher trophic level consumes the organism of a lower trophic level.
