**Ecological Pyramids** **2.1.4 Explain** the principles of pyramids of numbers, pyramids of biomass, and pyramids of productivity, and construct such pyramids from given data. **2.1.5 Discuss** how the pyramid structure affects the functioning of an ecosystem. Create pyramids for the following data. Label the pyramids appropriately (number pyramid, pyramid of productivity, pyramid of biomass). | A | B | C | | --- | --- | --- | | **Number Pyramid** | **Biomass Pyramid** (kJ m⁻²) | **Productivity Pyramid** (kJ m⁻²/yr) | | **Primary Producers** | 100,000 | 2,500 | 500 | | **Primary Consumers** | 10,000 | 200 | 50 | | **Secondary Consumers** | 2,000 | 15 | 5 | | **Tertiary Consumers** | 500 | 1 | -- | | D | E | F | G | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **Number Pyramid** | **Number Pyramid** | **Biomass Pyramid** (g m⁻²) | **Biomass Pyramid** (g m⁻²) | | **Primary Producers** | 1,500,000 | 1 | 807 | 4.0 | | **Primary Consumers** | 200,000 | 2,000 | 37 | 21.0 | | **Secondary Consumers** | 9,000 | 90 | 11 | -- | | **Tertiary Consumers** | 1 | 1 | 1.5 | -- | This table represents ecological data for creating pyramids of numbers, biomass, and productivity. The entries show the quantity or biomass of each trophic level, which consists of primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers. The data is to be used to understand how energy and biomass are distributed across different levels of an ecosystem.
