Solution

The correct option is D Net secondary productivity
The rate at which new tissues are formed in producers in the ecosystem is known as the net secondary productivity. It is basically the energy assimilated from the food consumed, that is the water and the minerals taken up from the soil minus the energy lost as feces and the energy consumed during respiration.
So, the correct answer is 'Net secondary productivity'.
