Solution

The correct option is B upright
A ecological pyramid has the producers at the base, and the higher organisms of the food chain are placed progressively upwards. An upright pyramid is broadest at the base and the narrowest at the top. This is because during energy transfer between adjacent trophic levels, energy is lost in the form of heat.
