Both pyramid are upright . 

Pyramid of numbers and pyramid of biomass will be formed in a forest with 75 tigers, 5,000 dears, and 1,00,000 trees . 

A ecological pyramid is a graphical representation of the relationship between the different living organisms at different trophic levels. 

It can be observed that these pyramids are in the shape of actual pyramids with the base being the broadest, which is covered by the lowest trophic level, i.e., producers. The next level is occupied by the next trophic level, i.e., the primary consumers and so on.

Trees - producers 

Deers - primary consumer( herbivores) 

Tiger - secondary consumer ( carnivores) 

As the number  and the bio mass is greatest at the base therefore pyramid is upright for both .
