Noticing large amounts of algal growth in her small farm pond, a farmer adds about 20 grass carp to feed on the abundant algae and plants. After several years, the carp grow large, exceeding 20 pounds each in size.

B) The large carp grew so large that they could not get enough oxygen.
C) Bacteria feeding on the large volume of carp feces depleted the oxygen.
