productivity counts the total assimilation
of energy by photosynthesis?
Answer
A. NPP
B. GPP
c. Secondary Productivity
D.Primary Productivity​

Answer 1

Answer:

GPP is a gross primary productivity, which is a measure of total fixation of energy by means of photosynthesis

Answer 2

GPP i.e Gross Primary Production counts the total assimilation of energy by photosynthesis.

Explanation:

• GPP (Gross Primary Production/Productivity) is the total amount of organic energy produced by producers in a given area using sunlight. It is produced as a result of photosynthesis.
• Every autotroph in the environment that is considered for measurement and calculation is a GPP (Gross Primary Productivity/Productivity) producer and ecosystem component.
• The GPP estimates take into account the energy consumed in other activities, such as respiration.
