How many trophic levels are in the food chain?
There are four trophic levels in an ecological pyramid. They are primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers.
If decomposers were added to an energy pyramid that contains producers primary consumers and secondary consumers which trophic level or levels would be affected?

What is the synonym for energy pyramid?
Another name for energy pyramid is ecological pyramid. It is very similar to the food chain. An energy pyramid has producers (green plants) at the bottom and three different types of consumers one above the other namely primary, secondary and tertiary. Primary:primary consumers are herbivores that feed directly on the producers or the green plants. Secondary:These consumers feed on the herbivores. Tertiary:These are consumers that feed on other carnivores and are on top of the energy pyramid. This means they are the last entity in the food chain. Eg: Producers-Grass Primary-Rabbit Secondary-Snake Tertiary-Eagle
What is the coral reef energy pyramid?
The coral reef energy pyramid is the same as any other ecosystem energy pyramid. There are producers and primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers.
What ecosystem might have a pyramid of numbers where there are less producers than consumers?
If the producers happen to be large trees, they can be small in number but still have a large biomass, therefore allowing them to support a community of more consumers.

Out of producers decomposers and consumers which has the highest number of organisms?
producers has the highest number and they are called autotrophs because they make their own food then the consumers are next which are called heterotrophs because they depend on other organism for food and the decomposers are on the top of the pyramid of numbers

What is the bottom layer of a pyramid that represents ecosystem producers and its top layers represent consumers called?
