Consider the food chain. What would MOST LIKELY happen if the bass started to disappear because too many of them had been caught during fishing season? A) The number of bear will increase. B) The plant population will increase. C) The number of minnows would increase. D) The number of minnows would decrease.
I believe your answer is C) The number of minnows would increase. That is because minnows are a bass's main food source. Less bass and there are less minnows being eaten, thus the population would increase and thrive!
