The correct response is: the mass of the mouse minus the mass of waste produced by the snake.
This is because when the snake digests the mouse, it will assimilate some of the mass into its own body, while some of the mass will be excreted as waste. Therefore, the increase in the snake’s mass is equal to the mass of the mouse minus the mass of any waste produced.
