Vedclass · Answer

(A) In a typical terrestrial ecosystem,the pyramid of numbers is upright.This means that the number of primary producers (plants) is significantly higher than the number of primary consumers (herbivores) that feed on them.As we move up the trophic levels,the number of individuals generally decreases because energy is lost at each transfer,making it impossible to support a larger population of higher-level consumers.Therefore,the population of primary producers is greater than that of primary consumers.
