Question

After six years of successional time, about how much organic mass is produced per square meter per ye

F110 g/m² yr
G410 g/m² yr
500 g/m²/yr
800 g/m² yr

Answer 1

Primary productivity refers to the rate at which solar energy is converted into organic compounds through photosynthesis by autotrophic organisms. The average primary productivity of terrestrial ecosystems is around 50 - 150 g/m²/yr, while aquatic ecosystems can range from 500 - 800 g/m²/yr.

In ecosystems, the production of organic mass per square meter per year is measured by the concept of primary productivity.

Primary productivity refers to the rate at which solar energy is converted into organic compounds through photosynthesis by autotrophic organisms such as plants and algae.
