Answer:

A. ingest other fish that are poisonous to humans.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a food chain a primary consumers eats the producer, a secondary consumer eats the primary consumer and then the tertiary consumer eats the secondary consumer. The level of poison will increase as it goes down the food chain so the tertiary consumer will have the highest amount of toxins in it.
