What is the most likely effect on the energy pyramid if all producers are removed from the ecosystem?
a) the energy pyramid will not change.
b) the energy pyramid will become inverted.
c) the energy pyramid will be completely disturbed.
d) the energy pyramid will begin with primary consumers.
C) The energy pyramid will be completely disturbed.
Explanation:
If the producers at the bottom of the pyramid are removed, the producers on the next level up will not be able to produce enough to feed the consumers on the next level of the pyramid, therefore destroying the ecosystem.
C) the energy pyramid will become completely dirstrupted
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. If all producers are removed from the ecosystem, then most likely the energy pyramid will be completely disturbed. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
If all producers are removed from the ecosystem then, anyone can't get their energy from sunlight so, energy flow will be disturb & all the other species would get affected by this.
Hope this helps!
c) the energy pyramid will be completely disturbed.
Explanation:
I believe It's D. Good Luck
It would be C.
the energy pyramid will be completely disturbed.
Option C, The energy pyramid will be completely disturbed.
Explanation:
Producers include organism that are able to produce food and energy for themselves and all other species.
Since they have the capability of feeding and acting as source of energy for others , all food chains start from producers only.
In case all producers are removed from ecosystem, then none of the organism in any trophic level will be able to survive and the entire food chain and ecosystem will come to a halt state.
Thus, option C is correct.
