ACTIVITIES ABOUT PRODUCTIVITY IN THE ECOSYSTEMS:

A) Gross productivity: 100g/day and Net prodctivity: 70 g/day

B) A total amount of 4g of dry organic matter per quarter meters per day.
C)The respiration rate is 8 g, as GP 10 – NP 2= 8
• Complete these statements:
1. The concept of autothrohs refers only to producers.
2. The concept of heterothrophs refers only to consumers.
3. To calculate the biomass of a trophic level, you must add the respiration rate,R, and the
primary productivity, P.
4. The rate at which consumers incorporate organic matter into their bodies is called feeding.
5. The rate at which producers produce food for primary consumers is called external energy
source.
D) Calculating the P/B ratio: I think this yearly increase is caused by the tree`s gross productivity,as
the biomass has increased.
