Answer: B. Amount of matter produced by the producers should be more than that of the consumers.

Food web defines a interconnection between different food chains and transfer of energy at each trophic level. According to the ten percent law 10% energy is lost from each trophic level. At the first trophic  level there are producers. Producers occupy the only one level in the trophic levels the rest is occupied by consumers this shows the category of consumer is more than producer. Therefore, for successful food web food availability should be more at initial trophic level hence amount of matter produced by the producers should be more than that of the consumer.

Amount of matter produced by the producers should be more than that of the consumers because matter and energy are lost with each successive step of the food chain. Therefore, for a food web to be functional and successful, the total amount matter produced by the producers be more than that of the consumers they support.

Xelga [282]

Answer:

Changes occurs in the environmental conditions directly affect carrying capacity of the ecosystem.

Explanation:

Carrying capacity of the ecosystem refers to the capacity of the environment which adjust plants and animals in a specific atmospheric condition. Suppose in harsh winter, the temperature of the ecosystem is very low which is unbearable for most of the plant and animal species, so very low number of plants and animals are able to live in that environment. In the ecosystem where the winter is harsh and the spring is cold, the population of living organism are more decreasing. If the ecosystem has Harsh winter, Cold spring, and Hot summer, this type of environment hold very low number of living species due to high variation in the environment.
