6 The diagram below shows what happens to energy as it passes through an herbivorous mammal (a wildebeest). ticks 5% of this energy stored in tissue 60% of this energy passes through the wildebeest energy contained within food a i State the source of the energy in the food eaten by the wildebeest. State the form in which the energy is present in the carbohydrate eaten by the wildebeest. Name the process that makes the remaining 35% of the energy in the food available to the wildebeest. ii b i ii State three ways in which the energy may be used within the wildebeest. The bird on the wildebeest's back is an oxpecker that feeds both on blood-sucking parasites (ticks) living on the wildebeest, and on blood from the wildebeest's wounds. ci Drawa food web to show the feeding relationships of the organisms in the diagram. ii Explain why there must always be fewer oxpeckers than ticks in this food web.
