In cod fishing, older and larger fish are more likely to be retained in nets than younger and smaller fish. Despite the removal

of these large breeders, the population is still reproducing. How do you think cod characteristics have changed due to the selection pressure from over-fishing?

Answer:

d.

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that the the mostly likely change from this scenario would be that the selection has led to decreases in the size of fish at the age of reproductive maturity. This because if only the smaller fish are able to escape the nets, then those smaller fish need to have reproduced in order for the population to remain the same.

Hi!

Your answer is B.

It is <u><em>not</em></u> A because this doesn't really make sense. It's not the best answer.

It <u><em>is</em></u> B because, in sentences, the words around it will likely give the information you need to infer what the word means.

(For example, if I were to say "<em>She was </em><u><em>continuously</em></u><em> singing, for yesterday she sang for 4 straight hours, and it was extremely annoying</em>", pretend you do not know what "continuously" means. By using the words around it, such as "4 straight hours" you can predict that it means "never stopping".)

It is <u><em>not</em></u> C because not every single sentence contains a synonym or antonym.

(See the sentence above. The antonym of "continuously" would be 'never' or 'sometimes' or possibly 'discontinous'. There isn't always an antonym or synonym there, is there?)

It is <u><em>not</em></u> D because not every single word is defined in a passage.

(When you open an average book, is there just an entire page(s) dedicated to every single definition of a word? Most often, no, there is not.)
