Question

Pyramid of numbers in grassland ecosystem is _______.

• A. linear
• B. upright
• C. inverted
• D. spindle-shaped

Answer 1

The correct option is B

upright

Pyramids can either be upright or inverted. In a grassland ecosystem, the number of producers (mainly grasses) is always maximum, followed by decreasing numbers of organisms at second trophic level (herbivores), third trophic level (carnivores) and least number of predators at the apex. Thus, a pyramid of numbers in grassland ecosystem is upright.
