Are there more tertiary consumers or producers in a healthy habitat?

In a healthy habitat, there are typically more producers than tertiary consumers. Producers, such as plants and phytoplankton, form the base of the food web and are abundant, providing energy for the entire ecosystem. Tertiary consumers, which are higher-level predators, are fewer in number as they rely on a larger biomass of primary and secondary consumers for sustenance. This pyramid structure of energy distribution supports a greater number of producers compared to higher trophic levels.
