1. The organisms at lower trophic levels have more consumable energy which provides the whale with more energy that organisms at other trophic levels.

3. Depending on the food chain, organisms can be on multiple trophic levels. For example, lions can be both a tertiary and secondary consumer.

Answer:
C. Both light tan and dark tan body color provided an advantage to the crabs on this beach, but not necessarily in other crab habitats.
Explanation:
The changes in the number of light tan and dark tan body color of crabs that occured can be described as a diversifying or disruptive selection.
This disruptive selection occurs when individuals with extreme traits on both ends of the spectrum become selected against individuals of ntermediate or medium traits.
In the case of the crab, their environment favors the selection of both extreme values as against those intermediate individuals, as both light tan and dark tan body color of the crabs gives them advantage over others in this particular environment. This may only be obtainable in this environment or similar beach environment with the same settings and conditions.
I think that the best phrase to fit into the blank is a "scientific theory".
A scientific theory is developed through experiments which use the scientific method, and a theory can be improved if additional data is available or if people provide suggestions which make the theory fit the data better.
Apparently it is caused by the sex hormones, testosterone, and oestrogen. there. that is the chemical reaction of lust.
