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)

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

pioneer species

Explanation:

Primary succession begins in barren areas, such as on bare rock exposed by a retreating glacier. The first inhabitants are lichens or plants—those that can survive in such an environment. Over hundreds of years these “pioneer species” convert the rock into soil that can support plants.
