Fatter and bigger, takes up more space
===================
No, that would be the greatest volume. Mass is something you weigh on a scale, and measure in grams or kilograms. Some organisms are denser than others.
In ecology, "biomass" is the mass of a group of living organisms.
What else can I help you with?
What organisms would contain the greatest biomass?
The greatest biomass on Earth is found in plants, particularly in forests, where trees and other vegetation contribute significantly to total biomass. Phytoplankton in the oceans also represent a substantial portion of biomass, as they form the base of the marine food web. Additionally, certain types of bacteria and fungi in soil ecosystems can have high biomass, contributing to nutrient cycling and decomposition. Overall, autotrophic organisms, especially those in terrestrial and aquatic environments, dominate global biomass.
The largest phylum in the animal kingdom is made up of what?
If by largest you mean greatest biomass then it would have to be the round worms phylum Nematoda if you mean the greatest number of species then it would have to be anthropoda as it includes the insects. If you mean by size then it would have to Chordata as it includes the whales.

What does 'decay of biomass' mean?
The decay of biomass means that biomass which is wood or litter is slowly decaying meaning that it is falling to pieces and slowly rotting away.
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.
Which layer of the rainforest has the highest biomass?
The canopy has the greatest volume of biomass. The soil is usually very low in nutrients because of the great need of the rainforest and uses the rotting debri very quickly. Hence the greatest volume of biomass is in a potential form in the canopy.
How do biomass stations work?
If you mean for producing electricity, not very different from burning fossil fuels. In the US about 1700MW can be produced from biomass at present.
What tropic level contains the greatest biomass in ecosystem. explain why this occurs?
Primary producers at the base of the food chain contain the greatest biomass in an ecosystem. This is because they are able to harness energy from the sun through photosynthesis, which supports their growth and reproduction. As energy is transferred up the food chain, biomass decreases due to energy loss at each trophic level.
What tropic level contains the greatest biomass in most ecosystems?
trophic level one.... the tertiary consumers, or top carnivores
Why are some of the more populated areas around the Hawaiian Islands showing the greatest difference in biomass from the pristine or near pristine ecosystems?
test
An undisturbed ecosystem will most likely have the greatest amount of biomass at?
Trophic level 1, which is the producers (plants and algae) in the ecosystem. They convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis and form the base of the food chain, accumulating the most biomass.
What is the word biomass mean?
Biomass refers to organic materials or living organisms that can be used as a source of energy. Examples include wood, crops, and waste materials that can be converted into biofuels.
What is a negative for biomass?
there is not a thing negtive about biomass we need to save biomass it!
