To determine the flask’s carrying capacity for rotifers in the presence of water fleas from the provided graph, you would need to identify the plateau or maximum level that the rotifer population reaches when it stabilizes.
Since I can't see the graph to analyze it directly, I can guide you on how to determine the carrying capacity:
1. Look for the horizontal line (or the flat portion) in the population curve for rotifers, which indicates that the population has stabilized and is neither increasing nor decreasing.
2. The value of this line usually represents the carrying capacity.
Based on the provided response options (3,000; 0; 4,200; 1,800), identify which number corresponds to the plateau or maximum level reached by the rotifer population.
If I had to guess based on typical ecological scenarios, "4,200" might often represent a common carrying capacity, but you should refer to the graph to confirm the correct choice. If you can see where the rotifer level stabilizes in relation to the water fleas, that will lead you to the right answer.
