Biomass
Organic matter or animal waste that can be burned for energy
Real World Example
Imagine trying to figure out how much food is in your fridge without opening it. Just as you estimate the total amount of groceries by considering the weight and volume of each food item you've put in there over time, biomass measures the total mass of all living matter in a specific area. In this analogy, each food item represents an individual organism, and your fridge is the given area; together, they combine to give you an overall sense of fullness or total mass, just like biomass does in an ecosystem.
