Vedclass · Answer

(D) Gross Primary Productivity $(GPP)$ is the rate at which an ecosystem's producers capture and store a given amount of chemical energy as biomass in a given length of time.Tropical rain forests have the highest $GPP$ among all terrestrial ecosystems because they have high temperature,abundant rainfall,and year-round sunlight,which are ideal conditions for photosynthesis.Therefore,tropical rain forests are the most productive ecosystems on land.

List-$I$ (Process)	List-$II$ (Definition)

$B$. Net primary productivity	$II$. Rate of formation of new organic matter by consumers
$C$. Gross primary productivity	$III$. Rate of biomass production
$D$. Secondary productivity	$IV$. Rate of production of organic matter during photosynthesis
