Which explains how the biomass at the top of the pyramid will change if a fire destroys a large percentage of the grasses in this ecosystem?

a
It will increase because the amount of energy lost as heat between the first trophic level and second trophic level will decrease.
b
It will increase because the fire increases the efficiency of energy transfer and prey aquisition at higher trophic levels.
c
It will decrease because the amount of chemical energy photosynthesis generates will not be enough to support higher trophic levels.
d
It will decrease because there will be a greater number of organisms at the second trophic level to support the higher trophic levels.

c. It will decrease because the amount of chemical energy photosynthesis generates will not be enough to support higher trophic levels.
