Question

In an ecosystem if dry wt of producer is 809 then what will be the biomass of tertiary consumer

Answer 1

Answer:

If in a biomass pyramid, the primary producer has 809Kg/m^3 dry mass, then the biomass of the tertiary consumer level will be 0.809.

Dry mass is nothing about the weight that is passed away while moving from individual trophic stage to another.

This is achieved by the formula – 3rd consumer level energy / 2nd consumer level energy * 100 +~1kg m-2.  By the formula, only 10% of the energy will be lost in the process.
