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.
Species
To calculate the biomass in a trophic level, you can sum the biomass of all organisms at that trophic level. This involves estimating the total mass of organisms, usually by sampling a representative area and measuring the weight of all living organisms present. Biomass can be expressed in units such as grams per square meter or kilograms per hectare.
Biomass refers to the total mass of living organisms in a particular habitat or ecosystem. Ecologists measure biomass to understand the energy flow and nutrient cycling within ecosystems, determine the health and productivity of ecosystems, and assess the overall impact of environmental changes on living organisms.
The use of biomass for fuel can reduce the consumption of oil and coal.
A group of organisms that are least similar are likely to be from different taxonomic families or even different phyla. For example, a whale (mammal) and a jellyfish (cnidarian) are widely divergent in terms of their evolutionary history and anatomical characteristics.
"Biomass" is the mass of living (and dead) organisms. So...yes, the Earth is covered with organisms, all of which add biomass.
Organisms in the ocean with the smallest total biomass are most likely the what?
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.
The biomass of each organism decreases with each level. With less energy at higher trophic levels, there are usually fewer organisms as well. Organisms tend to be larger in size at higher trophic levels, but their smaller numbers result in less biomass. Biomass is the total mass of organisms at a trophic level.
The mass weight of organisms per unit area or volume is called biomass.
Phytoplankton is the smallest total biomass

The total dry weight of the organisms in an ecosystem is called biomass. Biomass represents the total amount of organic matter present in living organisms within a specific area or trophic level. It is an essential measure of the energy stored in an ecosystem.
