The fluctuations in abiotic cycles can influence the population in many ways. The population of a particular area depends on the various abiotic cycles such as nitrogen cycle, carbon cycle, phosphorous cycle. The changes in these cycles affects the life of population. Fluctuation results in hibernation of species. Some of the organisms migrate to another place in search of normal environment. The early breeding results in creating problems. It disturbs the ecological balance by using the limited supply of resources. The fluctuation in phosphorous cycle can affect the aquatic population. As the dependency of population on abiotic cycles is as important as the biotic factors the fluctuations can cause many problem.

Populations are influenced by fluctuations in any of the abiotic cycles. The fluctuations of seasonal cycles can cause populations to hibernate, migrate, or breed. Organisms breed as a result of seasonal fluctucations that cause them to have a limited resource supply. Fluctuations in the phosphorus cycle can cause <span>changes to aquatic ecosystems, either positive or negative.</span>

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

<span> The highest ranked category or the highest taxonomic rank of organisms is a domain. Carl Woese designed three-domain system of taxonomy which includes Eukarya, Bacteria and Archea, and they differ in rRNA. The first includes all living organisms that have a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles and multicellular organisms. Other two are prokaryotic microorganisms or single-celled organisms whose cells have no nucleus. </span>

Overfishing of salmon has caused populations of wild salmon to decline. To combat this decline, salmon are raised in hatcheries,

Maslowich

Option A, The pressures of a hatchery environment and of the wild environment select for different traits.

The various pressures in wild environment include the competition for food and survival, threat of prey etc. The effect of domestication on salmon can also be a reason for its low productivity in wild environment. Some other factors that might have affected the regular productivity of salmon in wild environment include- captive rearing, inbreeding among close relatives and ability of some fish to adapt to the unique hatchery environment.
