question 28
the energy content and biomass of ______ is lowest in any terrestrial food web.
o top carnivores
o decomposers
o detritivores
o producers
o small carnivores such as spiders and lizards
In a terrestrial food web, energy and biomass decrease as we move up the trophic levels. Top - carnivores are at the highest trophic level, so they have the lowest energy content and biomass. Decomposers recycle nutrients, detritivores feed on dead matter, producers are at the base of the food web with high biomass, and small carnivores are at lower trophic levels than top - carnivores.
