EXPLANATION:
Problem:
Habitat loss and degradation, disease outbreak, invasive species, pollution, over‐exploitation/overfishing, and climate change are notable problems experienced by freshwater and marine fishes.
Solution:
Anthropogenic activities and stressors that rapidly threaten freshwater and marine fishes are curbed through legislation and other means to prevent extinction of fishes.
Through conservation programs that plans for individual species to more species of entire faunas of a particular location also boost population size and prevent hunting of threatened or endangered species in both realms.
Overtime, genetically modified fishes which can develop resistance to diseases are introduced to the realm.
Moreso, waste channels through which pollutants gets into the water bodies are well-treated for safety of fishes.
Nucleotides - they are molecules present in cells and are formed by nitrogenous bases
Answer:
The correct answer is: <em>C. Increased average lifespan to 78 in the US.</em>
Explanation:
Science has impacted human health by increasing the average lifespan to 78 in the US. Over the last couple of decades, the life expectancy of Americans has increased significantly than what it was 200 years ago. This can be attributed to:
1. Vaccinations- Since the invention of vaccinations, diseases such as tuberculosis, cholera and polio which were major causes of death 200 years ago have virtually been eradicated in the US.
2. Abundant and safer foods available- Commercial and large scale farming has made a wide variety of nutritious foods easier to obtain.
3. Improved sanitation- Safer drinking water, sewage treatment and stricter food inspection has significantly reduced the rate of illnesses due to poor hygiene and sanitation.
In these ways, science has impacted human health by increasing the average lifespan to 78 in the US.
