    Challenge Question #19
    "Do you think a small, medium or large fish would potentially contain more
    toxins? Explain why."

    The largest fish will have more toxins because it ate more fish which ate
    more green algae which absorbed the toxins from the water. The small fish
    ate 1000 grams of green algae, and 100 grams of water flea and 10 grams of
    Dragonfly nymph. The medium fish ate 10,000 grams of green algae, and 1000
    grams of water flea and 100 grams of Dragonfly nymph and 10 grams of little
    fish. The large fish ate 100,000 grams of green algae and 10,000 grams of
    water flea and 1,000 grams of Dragonfly nymph and 100 grams of little fish
    and 10 grams of medium fish. Everything in the water can absorb the toxins
    and the large fish are eating a lot more things that have toxins in them.
