Answer:

C) phytoplankton and bacteria

Explanation:

The biomass pyramid represents the amount of organic matter present in the body of organisms at each trophic level.

In an aquatic ecosystem, phytoplankton is the main producer of biomass, it reproduces quickly and has a short life cycle. At times, the biomass of phytoplankton may be smaller than the biomass of beings from other trophic levels, such as zooplankton and fish.

Bacteria are also major producers of biomass, in several different environments. For this reason, we can consider it, together with phytoplankton, the major biomass producers.

The biomass pyramid is a type of ecological pyramid. Ecological pyramids are graphical representations of trophic interactions between species in a community. They represent the flow of energy and matter between trophic levels, along the food chain.

Can humans live underwater what are some things to consider
timurjin [86]

Underwater living faces many of the same life support challenges as living in space. ... But in the future, underwater habitats might provide their own oxygen with artificial gill technology to extract dissolved air from the sea water

Since humans do not have gills, we cannot extract oxygen from water. Some marine mammals, like whales and dolphins, do live in water, but they don't breathe it. They have developed a mechanism to hold their breath for long periods of time underwater.

To put these depths into perspective, three American football fields laid end to end would measure 900 feet (274.32 m) long — less than the distance these divers reached underwater. Most recreational scuba divers only dive as deep as 130 feet (40 meters), according to the Professional Association of Diving Instructors.
