question

A lake that received runoff from surrounding farmland had a healthy fish population. Several years ago, a new type of pesticide was used to treat crops. As runoff entered the lake, it killed an insect that was a primary food source for fish. Which will most likely occur if farmers in the area stop using the pesticide?

choices

  • The population of fish will increase.
  • The insects will become more resistant to the pesticide.
  • The lake will be unable to support life.
  • The fish will find another food source.
