Q.

Ecological pyramids represent the relationship between the organisms at different trophic levels and they are generally inverted for:

  1. A

    Pyramid of number in grassland

  2. B

    Pyramid of energy in pond ecosystem

  3. C

    Pyramid of biomass in grassland

  4. D

    Pyramid of biomass in sea

Solution

The pyramid of biomass in a marine ecosystem is inverted because the small standing biomass of phytoplankton at any moment supports a much larger biomass of zooplankton and higher consumers.

Pyramids of number in grassland, energy in pond ecosystem and biomass in grassland are all upright.
