Question

Inverted pyramid is found in
A. Biomass pyramid of the Aquatic system.
B. Energy pyramid of Grassland
C. Biomass pyramid of Grassland
D. Pyramid of number of Aquatic system

Answer 1

Hint: Inverted pyramids of numbers can be found in an ecosystem with the community containing a few producers with large Biomass that support a large number of smaller consumers.

Complete Answer:
- In this pyramid, the number of individuals is increased from the lower level to the higher trophic level ex. tree system.
- In contrast in contrast in many aquatic ecosystems the pyramid of biomass may assume and inverted form (in contrast the pyramid of numbers for the aquatic ecosystem is upright)
- This is because the producers are tiny phytoplankton that grow and reproduce rapidly. Here the pyramid of biomass has a small base with the consumer Biomass at any instant exiting the producer Biomass and the pyramid resumes an inverted shape.
- Pyramid of energy is always upright can never be inverted because which and when energy flow from a particular trophic level to the next topic level some energy is always lost as heat at each step each bar in the energy pyramid indicate the amount of energy present at each trophic level in a given time or energy per unit area.
- Biomass of fish may be larger as fish as large in size with the longest lifespan and a number of generations of zooplankton can be consumed by the fishes.
- However, during transfer only 10% off by mass of one condition is passed on the next trophic level, sum total of biomass of ethics animals and brown algae exceeds the other producers and Consumers in aquatic ecosystem

Therefore, from the above explanation the correct option is (A) Biomass pyramid of the Aquatic system.

Note: The pyramid of Biomass in sea is always generally inverted because the Biomass of fishes far exceeds that of phytoplankton. A number of generations of phytoplankton methods are consumed by the single generation of zooplanktons.
