One snapping turtle weighs 40 pounds, so 10 snapping turtles in a pond have a total weight of 400 pounds. The turtles eat largemouth bass (1 trophic level below them), and the bass in turn eat minnows (2 trophic levels below the turtles). So since only 10% of energy is passed in each trophic level, we would need:
(x lbs of minnows)(10%)(10%) = 400 lbs of snapping turtles
x = 40000 lbs of minnows (Choice C)

Why don't the spontaneous deleterious mutations that occur in an individual
Neko [114]

Answer:

Please see below  

Explanation:

The reason behind this is the phenomenon of natural selection. The deleterious mutations do not provide a survival advantage so they are selected against, which results in these type of mutations to not be passed on - rather, they eventually get eliminated from the population.
