Why are predators the smallest group at the top in the energy pyramid

Predators eat prey, technically speaking.

Explanation:

The lowest and largest group takes the most energy cause it's first base. Going up the chain, the second group takes that energy from the first. Then the third, takes the energy from the second and so on. It's a cycle, and the the smallest group at the top of the energy pyramid will be given the less energy that travels throughout the pyramid.

I hope this makes sense.
