What will happen if all producers are removed from ecosystem? 

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Producers are the autotrophs which occupy the first tropic level in an ecosystem. The energy produced by them is utilized by the herbivores and then by carnivores, thereby maintaining the stability of ecosystem. If producers are removed from an ecosystem, it would lead to starvation and death of herbivores and subsequently the carnivores, thus terminating the entire food web.
