Answer:

Explanation:

The amount of biomass that is produced in an area during a given time is referred to as primary production/productivity.

<h3>What is biomass?</h3>
  • Renewable organic material obtained from plant and animal sources if referred to as biomass.
  • Primary productivity is the production of organic compounds through the process of photosynthesis, with the help of solar energy.
  • Primary productivity is measured as biomass produced per unit area over a give time period
  • It is usually expressed either in weight or energy.
  • There are two ways to express primary productivity:

a) Gross Primary Productivity(GPP): Takes into account the total energy produced in the ecosystem.

b) Net primary Productivity(NPP): Takes into account, solely the energy used by the producer for respiration.

Describe the importance of biomes such as forests, freshwater, and marine biomes? How have human actions affected these biomes?
Allisa [31]

Forest biome:  It gives us medicinal plants, woods for commercial purpose. Forests provides us rubber and fibers that is very important for the industries for making various products. They also contribute to perform ecological  functions such as carbon storage, nutrient cycling, water and air purification. It also provides habitat to the wildlife.

Freshwater biome:  We use fresh water for drinking water, irrigation, sanitation systems, and in industrial factories. Water used from groundwater, rivers and lakes is regained by rain and snowfall.

Marine biome:  It serves huge amount of oxygen into the environment and absorbs the atmospheric carbon dioxide.

As a result of the activity of human there is a significant decrease in the number of trees. The products now used are synthetically made which were made up of natural fibers previously. The water source such as rivers, lakes, and ponds are polluted due to which many water borne diseases are increasing day by day. The accumulation of waste which are found in marine biome are reducing the number of flora present inside marine ecosystem.
