NEET Botany Ecosystem Components Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Gross Primary Productivity (i) Biomass available for consumers (b) Net Primary Productivity (ii) Organic matter production during photosynthesis (c) Trophic Level (iii) First stage of ecological pyramid (d) Decomposers (iv) Break down organic matter
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
a-iv, b-ii, c-i, d-iii
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) refers to the total organic matter produced during photosynthesis (ii). Net Primary Productivity (NPP) is the biomass available for consumption after accounting for respiration losses (i). Each trophic level represents a specific stage in an ecological pyramid (iii), and decomposers play a vital role in breaking down organic matter (iv).
