Because of the relative longevity and reproductive capacity of predators vs. plankton
The inverted biomass pyramid is where the weight of the producers is less than the weight of the consumers. The inverted pyramid is more prevalent in aquatic ecosystems, as in such an environment, the biomass depends on the reproductive ability and the lifespan of the species. The best example is the pond ecosystem, where the mass of the producers of the ecosystem, which are generally the phytoplanktons is always less than the mass of the consumers in the ecosystem, which are generally fish and other insects.
It means its not a pyramid shape and this can happen because the consumers of the producer can be less
The biomass of the primary producers is being consumed so fast (by the primary consumers) that the standing crop appears to be smaller that the primary consumer in a pyramid of biomass. If the same data was plotted on an annual biomass ecological pyramid then the usual pattern would be oberved.
A biomass pyramid.
for pandas create a pyramid of biomass by putting the most weight fr panda then depending on sise and population for your choosen animals.
A biomass pyramid looks like an energy pyramid, in that the largest biomass is contained in the producer level, and the least biomass is contained in the level of the highest order consumer. Basically, as you move up the energy pyramid, there is less energy available to support the biomass at each subsequent level.
A pyramid of biomass shows how much energy the organism on a food chain is getting from its food.

Biomass is the 'weight' of biological matter. often measured in a biomass pyramid.
biomass , you put it in a pyramid, so a pyramid of biomass.
