Tropical rainforests have the highest net primary productivity due to their high biodiversity, warm climate, and abundant rainfall.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 12: Ecosystem Productivity - Primary Secondary GPP NPP
Gross primary productivity (GPP) is the total biomass or organic matter produced by plants through photosynthesis.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 12: Ecosystem Productivity - Primary Secondary GPP NPP
Primary productivity varies across ecosystems and is influenced by factors such as sunlight, nutrient availability, and temperature.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 12: Ecosystem Productivity - Primary Secondary GPP NPP
NPP is always less than GPP because it accounts for the energy lost through respiration.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 12: Ecosystem Productivity - Primary Secondary GPP NPP
Tropical rainforests have the highest net primary productivity due to high temperatures, abundant rainfall, and dense vegetation.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 12: Ecosystem Productivity - Primary Secondary GPP NPP
Despite covering 70% of the Earth's surface, oceans have low productivity due to limited nutrient availability in deeper waters.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 12: Ecosystem Productivity - Primary Secondary GPP NPP
Estuarine ecosystems are highly productive due to abundant nutrients and sufficient sunlight for photosynthesis.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 12: Ecosystem Productivity - Primary Secondary GPP NPP
Deserts have the lowest net primary productivity due to limited water availability and extreme climatic conditions.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 12: Ecosystem Productivity - Primary Secondary GPP NPP
Net Primary Productivity (NPP) is the energy available to consumers after subtracting respiration losses from Gross Primary Productivity (GPP).
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 12: Ecosystem Productivity - Primary Secondary GPP NPP
Despite their vast area, oceans have low productivity due to the limited availability of essential nutrients in deep waters.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 12: Ecosystem Productivity - Primary Secondary GPP NPP
Net Primary Productivity (NPP) is the amount of energy left after plants use some for respiration (R), calculated as NPP = GPP - R.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 12: Ecosystem Productivity - Primary Secondary GPP NPP
NPP is always less than GPP because it accounts for the energy lost through respiration.
