D) 0.7
Explanation
To determine the relative fitness of the mutated strain, we need to refer to Table 1, which presumably provides data on the fitness of various strains under different conditions. Relative fitness is typically a measure of the reproductive success of a strain compared to a reference strain under the same conditions.
