Which would you expect to have the greatest biomass a population of rabbits or a population of foxes living the same ecosystem?

Ecosystems are based on the amount of energy in the first or lowest level: trees, grasses, and shrubs. The next level can get only 10% of the first level to use for growth and reproduction. These are those that eat the plants (herbivores) of the first level. Rabbits would be included in this second level. Only 10% of 10% of the energy of the first level can be passed on to the third level, the carnivores. Those include foxes. Rabbits would be 10% of the biomass of the ecosystem (at most) and foxes only 1% (at most).


is a caterpillar a herbivore or a carnivore?

herbivore


Which would you expect to have the greatest biomass a population of rabbits or a population of foxes living in the same ecosystem?

A population of rabbits would be expected to have greater biomass due to their lower trophic level position and larger population size compared to the population of foxes, which occupy a higher trophic level and have a smaller population size.


What trophic level contains aut0tropic organisims fox rabbit or grass?

The trophic level that contains autotrophic organisms is the primary producer level. In this level, organisms like grass, which can perform photosynthesis, convert sunlight into energy. Foxes and rabbits, on the other hand, are heterotrophic; foxes are carnivores and rabbits are herbivores, both occupying higher trophic levels in the food chain.

How do ecosystems fallapart?

If one of the species in the ecosystem overpopulates or is over-hunted, it causes a ripple effect. For example, if foxes stopped being hunted, they would overpopulate, which would lead to a decline in the rabbit population. Then, the rabbits would be over-hunted, and the foxes would die out and the rabbits would overpopulate. They would eat all of the vegetation, and it would die out. Then the rabbits would die. Then the foxes would die.
