Which of the following explains the inversion of the aquatic pyramid of biomass?

a.
high phytoplankton turnover rate
b.
slow aquatic predator metabolisms
c.
small number of aquatic consumers
d.
high energy content of phytoplankton

Answer;

D. high energy content of phytoplankton

Explanation;

-Tertiary consumers can be more abundant than primary producers, but primary producers will always make the highest quality energy.

-Certain aquatic ecosystems have inverted biomass pyramids: producers (phytoplankton) are consumed so quickly that they are outweighed by primary consumers (zooplankton).

-The biomass of zooplankton is greater than phytoplankton (the producer ) because of their small size and low weight . The predatory fish is much larger than zooplankton.

acceleration= v2-v1/t so 8m/s-3m/s / 3s =to 8/3 or

2.67 m/s^2
