The other species that eat the blue crabs wouldn’t get enough food to survive.

# data[].attributes.body
It could cause species that it preys on to become overpopulated.

# data[].attributes.body
eliminates the food source for some consumers

It can affect the population and food supply of other creatures in the sea.

# data[].attributes.body
It could affect the diets such as Hermatodinium to eat something else rather than the blue crab.

# data[].attributes.body
the population of the species that eat blue crabs will decrease

# data[].attributes.body
Fish would have less to eat

Nathan and Dalton

The population of the Lesser Blue Crab would increase because there would be less competition.

# data[].attributes.body
There are more porcelain crabs and a crab called the lesser blue crab.

# data[].attributes.body
Population of smaller sea creatures would rise

# data[].attributes.body
If they die then the predators to blue crabs would die off

# data[].attributes.body
The tertiary consumer populations would decrease as a result of the death of the blue crab

# data[].attributes.body
Porcelain crabs population would increase because the blue crab are not eating them anymore.

# data[].attributes.body
The species that eat the blue crab would go hungry.

Each trophic level captures only 10% of energy and the rest is dissipated as heat in the activities of life.

A biomass pyramid is the mass (weight) & living matter of  the organisms in each tropic level

# data[].attributes.body
The organisms in each trophic level are counted or estimated from representative samples. The levels take shape in the size that best represents their number.

# data[].attributes.body
Biomass is the actual mass of living matter in the organisms in each trophies level

# data[].attributes.body
A pyramid of numbers will take different shapes according to the sizes of the producers

# data[].attributes.body
In grasslands, each producer is very small because it’s all of the producers that are working that area. But the producers are considerably larger than any other level since it has thousands of organisms.

# data[].attributes.body
A pyramid of biomass shows the biomass at one particular point in time.

# data[].attributes.body
the bigger the population the bigger the box

# data[].attributes.body
Shows very clearly that if food for feeding people is scarce, we can feed far more people on plant foods than we can on meat from plant eating animals.

# data[].attributes.body
A pyramid of energy displays the total amount of energy captured and stored in the biomass of each trophies level in one year

# data[].attributes.body
A biomass pyramid is a diagram visibly showing the levels of actual mass from largest to smallest.

# data[].attributes.body
The proportions can be distorted if one trophic level has a peculiar reproductive rate.

# data[].attributes.body
A secondary carnivore eating primary carnivore takes in only 1% (10 percent of 10 percent) of the energy present in the original producers and converts about only 0.1% of that energy into its own body mass.
