Please answer all 4 questions. A.) It is estimated that the mature Atlantic herring population today has a biomass (total weight of the population) of approximately 2 million metric tonnes (2 billion kg). If an average adult Atlantic herring weighs 0.125 kg, how many adult Atlantic herring are there in the entire population?
Hint: kg /0.125 kg per fish = fish
There are fish in the entire population.

B.) An adult Atlantic herring consumes, on average, 10 g of plankton per day. How much plankton would the adult Atlantic herring population consume in a day?
The population would consume grams of plankton a day.

C.) If there were a severe reduction of plankton available to the Atlantic herring population, and therefore a 55% decrease in the herring, how many mature Atlantic herring would be supported by the ecosystem?
The ecosystem could support fish.

D.) How many kilograms would that equate to?
