Under Environmental Studies (EVS) teaching-learning and Ecosystem, consider the following statements regarding 'Ecological Pyramids': 1. The 'Pyramid of Numbers' is always upright, whether it is a grassland ecosystem, a forest ecosystem, or a large-sized tree ecosystem. 2. The 'Pyramid of Biomass' is upright in most terrestrial ecosystems, because the total biomass of producers is much higher than that of consumers, but in an aquatic ecosystem (such as a pond or sea) it is inverted because the biomass of phytoplankton is lower than that of higher carnivorous animals. 3. The 'Pyramid of Energy' in any ecosystem is always upright, because according to the Laws of Thermodynamics, there is a continuous decrease during the transfer of energy from one trophic level to another. Which of the above statement(s) is/are correct?

Consider the following statements regarding 'Ecological Pyramids' and energy flow under Environmental Studies (EVS): 1. The 'Pyramid of Energy' is always upright because the '10% Law', propounded by Lindeman, applies during the transfer of energy from one trophic level to another in an ecosystem. 2. The 'Pyramid of Biomass' is upright in most terrestrial ecosystems, but it is inverted in aquatic (pond or ocean) ecosystems because the total biomass of producers (phytoplankton) there is much less compared to consumers (zooplankton and fish). 3. The 'Pyramid of Number' is always upright, whether it is a grassland, a forest ecosystem, or a parasitic food chain based on a large single tree. Which of the statement(s) given above is/are correct?
