Scientists calculated the net primary productivity at two different forest sites. Both forests have the same gross primary productivity. Forest A has a net primary productivity of 1,650 kcal/m2/year , and forest B has a net primary productivity of 1,110 kcal/m2/year . Which of the following statements is best supported by the data? 1. Forest A has a higher rate of decomposition by bacteria than forest B.
2. Forest A has more biodiversity than forest B.
3. Forest A producers have lower rates of cellular respiration than forest B producers.
4. Forest A producers have more biomass than forest B producers.
