In ecology, biomass refers to the mass of organisms living within a specific region at a time. Biomass is measured and usually described as:
the total mass of the organisms within a community
the average masses per unit area
Typically, more numerous organisms, such as producers, have a higher average biomass. This may include plants, animals or microbes such as bacteria and fungi. In terrestrial environments, biomass is distributed in pyramid form; the carnivorous hawk preys on rabbits and birds, which are nearer to the base of the pyramid- each predator population would have a lower biomass than its prey.
The birds weigh 100 grams while the rabbit weighs 150 grams.The rabbit has a higher total mass
Answer: Sea stars move using a water vascular system. Water comes into the system via the madreporite. It is then circulated from the stone canal to the ring canal and into the radial canals.
Explanation: The radial canals carry water to the ampullae and provide suction to the tube feet.
