Type: MCQ-conceptual-Easy-Class 12

Question : Full form of GFC is :

A

Grazing food chain

B

Grazing fish chain

C

Gross food chain

D

Green forest conservation

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The full form of GFC is indeed the grazing food chain, which begins with primary producers like plants that convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis (6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂). This chain then progresses to herbivores (plant eaters) that consume these producers, followed by carnivores that feed on the herbivores, illustrating the flow of energy through trophic levels. Since the other options are labeled as N/A, they do not provide any valid alternatives or relevant information regarding the grazing food chain. Understanding this concept is crucial for grasping ecosystem dynamics and energy transfer in ecological studies.
