Blue Carb which scientifically is known as “<span>Callinectes sapidus” is a type of vertebrates. </span>A possible reason for the fluctuation in their population can be the eutrophic dead zones in the Chesapeake Bay which naturally cases low levels of oxygen dissolving into the Bay leading to fluctuation of Blue crab population.

<span>Another reason also can be the shorter life span of blue crab, its average life span recorded is one to three years which is very short in comparison to striped bass, although some blue crabs are caught after being tagged at the age of 6 to 8 years as well.</span>

How does isolation of a population lead to a decrease in genetic diversity
exis [7]

Answer:

Decrease in genetic diversity reduces the chance of variation in the offspring.

Explanation:

If there is no variation, there will be no evolution. So, if there is a change in the environment (like an outbreak of a disease) that affects one of the organisms, it is likely to affect all of them and destroy the whole population. This would lead to extinction.

Aquatic organisms have only a predatory relationship with coral reefs.
nlexa [21]

The given statement is False.

The coral reef serves as a source of food and shelter for aquatic animals. Almost one fourth of the species present in ocean depends on coral reef for food and shelter. Coral reefs are often called as rainforest of the sea. They do not have only predatory relationship rather they have symbiotic relationship with aquatic organisms.
