The diagram shows an inverted pyramid where primary consumers (zooplankton) have more biomass than primary producers (phytoplankton).

•In aquatic ecosystems, phytoplankton are very small and have less biomass but reproduce rapidly.

•Zooplankton feeding on them collectively have greater biomass at any given time.

This inverted structure is characteristic of the pyramid of biomass in aquatic ecosystems.
