Answer:

The study of fish is called Ichthyology.

Explanation:

Fish specimens are identified in the field by ichthyologists. Ichthyology is the field of study that deals with fishes. Taxonomy (classification and the description of new species) and biogeography are the two main areas of focus for museum ichthyologists (patterns of distribution).

Ichthyology is the field of study that deals with fishes. Taxonomy (classification and the description of new species) and biogeography are the two main areas of focus for museum ichthyologists (patterns of distribution). Large reference collections of preserved specimens are kept in museums as a permanent resource for present-day researchers as well as for future ones.

Answer:

ichthyology, scientific study of fishes, including, as is usual with a science that is concerned with a large group of organisms, a number of specialized subdisciplines: e.g., taxonomy, anatomy (or morphology), behavioral science (ethology), ecology, and physiology.

In lecture, I mentioned most lakes are phosphorus limited. However, the most severely eutrophic lakes are often nitrogen limited

KIM [24]

Answer:

Phosphorus is essential for growth of plants and other organisms. When concentration of phosphorus mostly from high breeding rate e.g., pigs, cattle etc. rise in water it causes severe growth of plants and algae as well as phytoplanktons. As a results layers of phosphorus start to release phosphorus as well due to positive gradient. These reactions in water are iron-redox reactions that are crucial for the release of phosphorus.

When too much phosphorus accumulates, it produces a degrading growth feedback in plants, algae and phytoplanktons that then shift toward excessive nitrogen available from fertilizers and cause a flip from P to N. Cynobacteria now dominates and denitrification as well as nitrification takes place simultaneously.

Severe eutrophication induces hypoxia in water that cause a major damage to plants biodiversity in the environment.

What is the dominant impact that humans have on alpine glaciers?

prisoha [69]

The researchers estimate that between 1990 and 2010, some 69 percent of the mass lost by the world's alpine glaciers can be traced to human influence – basically global warming. This 2013 file photo shows the Mendenhall Glaicer where it spills over the mountains above Mendenhall Lake in Juneau, Alaska.
