Solution

Pyramid of biomass represents the amount of living matter present in an ecosystem. In a terrestrial ecosystem, such as in case of a tree, the pyramid of biomass is upright as it supports a large number of birds and thus, biomass progressively decreases at each successive trophic level from producers to top carnivores.
