After feeding 40 mealworms with only plastic for 5 weeks, we measured the length and the weight of the 20 samples. The average weight is 0.177g per worm and the original length is about 30.4cm. Compared to the original length 20.2cm, it is noticeable that mealworms are possible to continue their lives with plastics as their only source of nutrient.<br/><br/> | After feeding 40 mealworms with only plastic for 5 weeks, we measured the length and the weight of the 20 samples.
