Caves have so few producers because of the lack of sun. A producer makes its food from the suns energy and without that there aren't producers. some caves have types of micro organisms that make their own food from other sources of energy and could possibly be considered producer type organisms themselves.

Did the stone age people live in caves?

Answerpeople of the stone age mostly lived in caves because they were nomadic people meaning they moved a lot. AnswerClearly some Stone Age people lived in caves, and we can show this by the presence of artifacts in the caves. On the other hand, there are very few caves in much of the world, and nomads tend not to live in caves, but in tents. So we can be pretty sure that some Stone Age people did not live in caves, also. There is a link below to an article on nomads.


What would happen if there was no caves?

If there were no caves, many animals that rely on them for shelter, breeding, and hibernation would struggle to find suitable habitats. Additionally, some caves play a crucial role in groundwater recharge and filtering, so ecosystems that depend on caves for water supply would face challenges. Lastly, caves provide unique opportunities for exploration, learning, and scientific research, so the loss of caves would impact both the scientific community and recreational cavers.

The main types of caves are solution caves, lava caves, sea caves, glacier caves, and talus caves. Solution caves form from the dissolution of soluble rocks like limestone; lava caves are created by flowing lava; sea caves are carved by the action of waves on coastal cliffs; glacier caves form within glaciers due to melting and refreezing processes; and talus caves are formed by fallen rocks creating cave-like structures.

Why can't a stalagmite form before a stalactite?

Why can't it not? There are caves, and places within individual caves, with stalagmites but no stalactites above them, and vice-versa; and caves devoid of either formation except in a few beautiful grottoes. Caves don't obey hard-and-fast rules like that implied by the question - that's one aspect that make them so fascinating to explore, admire and study!
