I don't get it it's kinda confusing
In an ecosystem, two factors are being classified which are the abiotic and the biotic factors. Both of these factors play an important role in order to balance the ecosystem and maintain the harmony of the living things therein. The environment includes the abiotic factors which are the sunlight, weather, water, air, and all other factors which are not living but contribute to the growth and development of the living ones. For example, plants cannot live without water, sunlight and carbon dioxide. The effects that humans have on the environment is both good and bad. Humans also play an important role in maintaining the environment, and they also have the capability to endanger it.
The right answer is opposite.
In the air, the biomass of primary producers is often much higher than the biomass of consumers, especially in forests where a large part of the biomass is wood. In aquatic environments and especially oceanic, the biomass of primary producers (phytoplankton) is generally lower than that of consumers but this biomass is rapidly renewed.
