Question 1

Open water producer and primary consumer biomass pyramid can be inverted because

A)algal producers are less productive than producers in other systems

B) Zooplanton consumers are so efficient

C) algal producers are so productive

D) Keystone predators maintain lower trophic levels

Question 2

Which of the following statements are FALSE?

A) Water availability and temperature interactto influence photosynthesis rates

B) The availability of water limits the rate of photosynthesis because stomata must be opened to gather CO2

C) The growing season is the period when temperatures are high enough to support photosynthesis

D)Net primary productivity increases with increasing mean temperature and rainfall

E) Areas with high mean annual temperatures have longer growing seasons than do areas with lower temperatures but the rate of photosynthesis is similar

Explanation / Answer

Open water producer and primary consumer biomass pyramid can be inverted because zooplankton consumer are efficient (store maximum energy from producer)

False statement is E ( area with high mean annual temperature have longer growing seasons than do areas with lower temperature but the the rate of photosynthesis is similar (no rate of photosynthesis is different in different temperature)
