• Create a food web with all of the organisms!

REVIEW FOOD WEB ACTIVITY The pes=cide DDT was used to kill mosquitoes for many years.
DDT entered bodies of water, moved up the food chain, and built up in the =ssues of fish. When female bald eagles ate these fish, they produced eggs with very thin shells. The eggs broke when the eagles sat on their nests. The U.S. government banned the use of DDT in 1972.
Which of these graphs most likely shows how the ban of DDT affected the bald eagle popula=on?
