Answer:
-What types of toxins were found in the waters of the Lower Passaic Superfund site?
DDT and agent orange were found in the waters of the Lower Passaic Superfund site.
-How were some fish able to survive PCB levels thousands of times higher than sensitive fish can withstand?
in some tolerant fish, the trigger for the changes that can be caused by PCB levels are can be turned off which allows some fish to survive levels of PCB thousands of times higher than the levels affecting sensitive fish.
-What is the advantage of a large population for rapid evolution?
The advantage of rapid evolution is that the animals can survive and not get killed off.
-Do you think all species would be able to evolve adaptations to help them survive pollutants? Why or why not?
I don't think that all fish can get speedy evolutions like the killfish did because researchers think that they got a rare mutation which helped them survive. However as researchers say, in smaller populations with less diversity the chances that a rare mutation might happen is small.
-What will likely happen to these toxin-adapted fish if the waters are eventually cleaned up?
Once the water becomes clean, a tolerant fish with the mutation won't do as well as a sensitive fish would do.

Can I have brainliest? It would help me out, if not thanks anyways! Hope this helped and have a nice day! Thank you : )
The most common reason for the condensation on the inside of the roof is the evapotranspiration from the leaves of the plants in the conservatory.
True true true true true true
The number of producers is more than consumers and top carnivores in ecosystem. for example:- in the food chain of grass--goat--man,atleast 90% of energy is pasted to other level and 10% will be stored at that level it self.
grass goat man
50/100 40/80 30/60.
as we human beings depend on plants and animals for our food for our whole life we need atleast 100 numbers of small plants for one week.
