Q. No.In an ecosystem, if the Net Primary Productivity (NPP) of first trophic level is \(100 x\left(\mathrm{kcal} ~\mathrm{m}^{-2}\right) \mathrm{yr}^{-1},\) what would be the GPP (Gross Primary Productivity) of the third trophic level of the same ecosystem?
| 1. | \(x\left(\mathrm{kcal}~ \mathrm{m}^{-2}\right) y r^{-1}\) |
| 2. | \(10 x\left(\mathrm{kcal} ~\mathrm{m}^{-2}\right) \mathrm{yr}^{-1}\) |
| 3. | \(\dfrac{100 x}{3 x}\left(\mathrm{kcal} ~\mathrm{m}^{-2}\right) \mathrm{yr}^{-1}\) |
| 4. | \(\dfrac{x}{10}\left(\mathrm{kcal} ~\mathrm{m}^{-2}\right) y r^{-1}\) |
