Detailed explanation-1: -The ascending order of NPP will be: Temperate coniferous forest> Temperate deciduous forest > Tropical deciduous forest > Tropical rainforest.
Detailed explanation-2: -In Aquatic ecosystems, productivity in decreasing manner is 1. Estuaries (most productive), 2. Lakes and streams, 3. Continental shelf, 4.
Detailed explanation-3: -The total stored energy in the form of organic matter is called net primary productivity (NPP). The rate of energy production by green plants during photosynthesis is called as gross primary production (GPP). Net primary production is calculated after deducting the loss of organic matter during respiration.
Detailed explanation-4: -So the correct sequence of ecosystem in the order decreasing productivity is: Mangroves > Grasslands > Lakes > Oceans.
