Look at figure 1 in the passage. Which of the following relationships is BEST shown by the data? The more massive the penguin, the more food is delivered to the offspring. The maximum efficiency in food foraging is reached at about 20% sea ice concentration. B. The amount of food delivered is about the same at 12% and 15% sea ice concentration. The greater the sea ice concentration, the greater the efticiency in delivering food

"When the cover on the ocean reaches around 70 percent ice and there's only 30 percent
water, conditions become more difficult for Adélies," says Ainley. "Above that point, penguins
begin to have problems with access to the sea and spend too much time walking. Around 20
percent ice cover is ideal for them."
