How does the decay of biomass relates to the food chain?
the last thing in a food web in decomposers and decomposers break down and feed on wastes and dead animals.
What does a biomass show?
The biomass pyramid is a chart that is drawn to scale. It displays the biomass at each stage in the food chain.
What does a biomass pyramid represent?
A pyramid of biomass shows how much energy the organism on a food chain is getting from its food.
In a food chain which organisms have the smallest numbers and smallest total biomass?
Those at the top of the food chain.
What is the total mass of all organisms in a food chain?
biomass
Explain the reason that eating lower on a food chain provides more food energy that eating higher on the food chain?
Biomass refers to the food available for the next trophic level in a food chain. There is a higher biomass on the lower levels of the food chain, hence eating on those levels would provide more food energy.
What organism has the greatest biomass in the food chain?
The Producers. Tends to be the bottom of the pyramid if you are studying a pyramid.
What happens to the biomass as you move up the food chain?
Biomass accumulates Think of it as a pyramid If the animals at the bottom consume a little then the next step up will have a little more in them because they just absorbed all of it when you get to the top you will have the highest concentration in the entire food chain.
Are all parts of the food chain linked?
biomass power generation temperature oxygen string erindigame reserve
Why do people need the process of decay?
People need the process of decay because it returns the nutrients to the soil. The nutrients then travel throughout the food chain to people.
Why are producers important for the transfer of energy within an ecosystem?
Producers are the beginning of the chain of energy that travels through the food chain. These are organisms, such as plants, that turn inorganic material into biomass.
Which group of organisms has the least biomass?
A tropic level is the position that an organism occupies in the food chain. The trophic level that has the least biomass is trophic level 5, which is composed of apex predators.
