Answer:

This method of population estimation would be more accurate in a lake setting as the fish would all stay at the same place all the time so it's easier to keep a control of the population.

Explanation:

The mark and recapture method is a population size estimation technique where a portion of the population is marked and released, and then a second portion is captured to count how many of the previously marked individuals is found in order to determinate an estimate of the total size of the population. Doing this on a stream or river would present several complications, as the individuals are constantly moving ahead down the river and travel very long distances, so the probability of recapturing a previously marked individual is very slim. Whereas in a lake, all the population of fish would stay in the same area all the time, making this method very practical to estimate the total population.

How are spring and neap tides different from regular tides? Check all that apply.
Svet_ta [14]
<h2>Answer: They are extra-high tides and extra-low tides.</h2>

Explanation:

Tides are periodic movements of the great masses of water on our planet as part of the gravitational attraction exerted by the moon and the sun on Earth.  

In this sense, there are two very special cases:  The Spring and Neap tides.

<u>Spring tides  </u>

Occur when there is a full moon or new moon, which makes the <u>tides higher.</u> During these lunar phases, the Moon, the Earth and the Sun are aligned and the gravitational attraction power is greater.  

<u>Neap tides  </u>

Occur when the moon, the earth and the sun form a right angle (90\º), being the gravity attraction on the masses of water the minimum. This happens in the crescent and wanning phases.
