Solution

The correct option is A Snakes
The diagram is a food pyramid and actually starts with producers or plants at the base and ends with the consumers. Here, the plants which primarily synthesise energy are consumed by the cricket which is in turn eaten by the frog. The frog is eaten by a snake which at the apex and hence has least or negligible reception of biomass. So, the correct answer is 'Snakes'.
