The pyramid of energy-in a forest ecosystem is
always upright
always inverted
both (a) and (b)
none of the above
A.
always upright
In a forest ecosystem, the producers are large size trees which make the base of Pyramid. The herbivores such as fruit eating birds, deer, elephants etc. make the primary consumers and are less than primary producers. After that, the number goes down at each successive level.
Identify which one of the following is an example, of incomplete ecosystem?
Grassland
Cave
River
Wetland
Assertion: In tropical rain forests, O-horizon and A-horizon of soil profile are shallow and nutrient-poor.
Reason: Excessive growth of micro-organisms in the soil depletes its organic content.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
If assertion is true but reason is false
If both assertion and reason are false.
Assertion : In a food chain members of successive higher levels are fewer in number.
Reason : Number of organisms at any trophic level depends upon the availability of organisms which serve as food at the lower level.
