Good Morning Friends,

The slightest imbalance in the ecosystem can lead to hazardous effects to all forms of living being. This has been altered before and is now evident with the prevailing global warming effects. Emergency methods to solve the problem are being sort with the head of states holding meetings to come up with the most reliable solution to the menace.

The biomass has been known to be the best alternative to the fossil fuels and many other energy sources. This has considerably helped in improving the world’s climatic conditions around the globe. New developments are being made and better methods of getting the best and cleanest energy from the biomass are being sort. Great benefits have been found from the use of biomass among them being the reduction of waste to get a cleaner environment, cost effectiveness and the best method to address global warming.

Definition of Biomass Pyramid

The Pyramid of Biomass is a graphical representation that depicts the extent of biomass per unit area within different trophic levels in an ecological system. The bottom level of the representation is usually occupied by the producers whereas the carnivals are shown in the top levels. 

Pyramid of Biomass

The name of the pyramid biomass comes from the fact that it is represented in the pyramid form. Their energy capacity is usually concentrated at the base, which is represented as being wide and decreases as one move up to the apex. The pyramid is used as a manner of clarifying the movement of the biomass as well as the energy through the ecosystem.

The manner of Pyramid of Biomass representation is based on the thermodynamics. The law states that energy can never be destroyed and neither can it be created. Energy can only be transferred from one form to another. The pyramid represents the animals that eat plants, then those that eat the grass eating animals and then those that eat the animals feeding on other animals. The last step is the decomposers. The energy is hence transferred through the chain and converted in the biomass.

Answer:

A pyramid of energy is a graphic representation of amount of energy per unit area at different trophic levels of a food chain in an ecosystem. The pyramid of energy is always upright because the available energy is the highest at producer level.According to second law of thermodynamics there is gradual decrease in available energy at successive trophic levels.

Hope it helps
