Answer:

Option B, The population of paddlefish will decrease, while the population of zooplankton will increase.

Explanation:

Since, it is given that humans living around the river started  hunting the paddlefish thus their population will definitely decrease. As the number of paddlefish decreases the extent to which they feed on zooplanktons will also decrease. Thus, the population of zooplanktons will increase with no or limited disturbance.

Population of lamprey  which feed on paddlefish will start decreasing as their food i.e paddlefish has started declining.

Thus, option B is the correct answer.

So, if calorie equals energy, I would say that calories are the reason why meat has more energy in it.

<h3>What is postnatal stage?</h3>

The postnatal stage-from infancy to childhood to the juvenile period to adolescence to adulthood-involves growth acceleration and deceleration. Childhood and adolescence are long events, in which adult behaviors are learned, individuals become completely mature, and the reproductive capacity develops.

Thus, option "C" is correct.
