The mice ingested 10x the amount of pesticide since 10% of what the grasshopper consumed is passed on to the next trophic level, and since about 1 mice eats 10 grasshoppers, that's 100% of the pesticide ingested by the mice.

How much pesticide will each take in compared to each grasshopper?

There is no testing that has been done recording the amount of pesticide a mouse will take to kill compared to a grasshopper. The amount of pesticide that it would take would depend on the size of the grasshopper, and the size of the mouse.

How much pesticide does it take each mouse compared to each grasshoppeer?

The amount of pesticide that affects a mouse compared to a grasshopper can vary significantly due to their differences in size, metabolism, and physiology. Generally, mice, being larger mammals, may require a higher dose of pesticide to experience toxic effects compared to grasshoppers, which are much smaller and more sensitive to chemicals. Additionally, the specific type of pesticide and its mode of action also play crucial roles in determining toxicity levels for each species. Ultimately, precise dosage comparisons depend on the specific pesticide being used and the context of exposure.


How much pesticide will each mice take compared to each grasshopper?

Theoretically the same percentage in relation to it's body weight, but poison labelled for rodents and insects are different things


How much pesticide will each snake take in compare to each grasshopper?

The amount of pesticide each snake takes in compared to each grasshopper will depend on several factors, including the concentration of the pesticide, the size and feeding habits of the animals, and the food chain dynamics. Generally, snakes, being higher up in the food chain, may accumulate more pesticides through a process known as biomagnification, as they consume multiple grasshoppers. Therefore, while a single grasshopper might ingest a small amount of pesticide directly from its environment or food, the snake, having eaten several grasshoppers, could take in a significantly larger quantity.

What does the term trophic level mean?

That's where an organism fits in the food chain. Like, a Hawk will eat a snake; a snake will eat a mouse; a mouse will eat a grasshopper; a grasshopper eats plants. The hawk is at the top of the trophic level pyramid in this example.

How many mice are there in the room if there is a mouse in each of the four corners and opposite each mouse there are three mice and at each mouse's tail there is a mouse?

Four. If there are three and only three mice "opposite" each corner (in the other corners). Otherwise there would be more than three "opposite" each corner. (The part about the tail was not part of the original riddle, but basically they're saying that each mouse can see the other three in their corners.)
