- A net primary productivity
- B standing crop
- C gross primary productivity
- D standing state
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) standing crop
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(b) :Standing crop is the total amount of living material in a specified population at a particular time, expressed as biomass (standing biomass) or its equivalent in terms of energy.
