Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

If the organism has backbone then it implies that it is a vertebrate. Being chordate doesn't mean the organism must have the notochord throughout the life. If an organism has a notochord in early embryonic stages but later on it disappears with due course of time and development then also the organism can be categorized into chordates. Not only this but also, presence of backbone indicates that the organism is a vertebrate for sure. Also, all vertebrates are chordates but all chordates are not vertebrates. It simply means that an organism can be both a chordate as well as vertebrate but being a chordate doesn't guarantee that it is a vertebrate because all chordates do not have backbone/vertebral column.

Answer:

The most probable result of the increasing concentrations of fertilizers in the prime rivers emptying into oceans is eutrophication followed by hypoxia. This will eventually result in less uptake of carbon dioxide and less release of oxygen.  

The fertilizers are among the common pollutants, which degrade the quality of water. The fertilizers comprise chemicals, which are good for plants use, however, the excess amounts used in plants get run off and pollute the water bodies.  

The fertilizers mainly comprise nutrients like phosphorus and nitrogen. When it rains, these nutrients get carried to the water bodies and results in algal bloom known as eutrophication. This algal bloom utilizes the oxygen in the water, leaving behind no or fewer levels of oxygen that hampers life of aquatic species.
