Net primary productivity of an ecosystem refers to the biomass available in the producers for consumption by heterotrophs, i.e., herbivores and decomp...
R represents the respiratory losses.
Primary productivity is determined as the amount of biomass or organic matter produced per unit area over a time period by the plants during photosynt...
In a forest, the trees occupy the upper/ topmost vertical strata, the shrubs, the second and herbs, the bottom layers.
‘Stratification’ in an ecosystem refers to the vertical distribution of different species occupying different levels.
Species composition refers to all the plant, animal and microbial species present in a given ecosystem.
An ecosystem is a functional unit of nature, where biotic components (living organisms) interact among themselves and also with the abiotic environmen...
Stratification.
True, In an ecological pyramid, the amount of energy available at the lower trophic level is always more than that at a higher trophic level.
False, In a hydrarch succession, the marsh-meadow stage is preceded by the scrub stage.
False, The function of reservoir of any nutrient cycle is to store as much matter as possible.
False, The pioneer species always remain in equilibrium with the environment and do not change easily.
True, Natural or man-made disturbances during succession, can convert a particular seral stage to an earlier stage.
