the amount of matter in a body is found by drying it to remove all the water then weighing it. This amount of matter is called the biomass. Ecologists find measuring biomass useful as it tells them how much matter is locked up in each species of a food chain.

What do ecologists measure in grams of organic matter per unit?
Biomass!
What does a biomass pyramid measure?
Biomass. Pyramids of biomass and number are scientific models to represent all the things eaten in a foodchain. Pyramids of number are flawed as a great many insects may feed on a tree, for example, producing a narrow base to the pyramid. Pyramids of biomass are a better model as they show the dry mass of each part of the food chain and give a better indication of the energy passed between trophic layers. Biomass pyramids show the abundance of organisms at each trophic level.
The total amount of living tissue within a given trophic level is called the?

Why were lettuces dried up in order to measure the biomass?
So the mass of the water logged in the plant isn't weighed too so you only get the mass of the biomass
