Answer:
A) The gene flow between hatchery-reared and wild populations is leading to a decline in fitness of wild populations.
Explanation:
<u>we have relative fitness at its greatest in trouts whose parents are wild x wild. crossing the wild with hatchery reared causes a decrease in the fitness of the troutgene flow is the exchange of genes between two different breeds. the wild is a greatly diverse breed and it is highly adaptive. while the hatchery reared is less adaptive.when these two breed less fit alleles will then be transferred to the wild</u>
therefore option a answers the question
Perhaps the best known unconfined aquifer is the Ogallala. In many places this aquifer is near the surface and recharge depends on water that collects at the surface in wetlands. ... A playa lake is a naturally occurring wetland (averaging about 17 acres) formed when rain fills small depressions in the prairie.

A gene pool is a collection of all the genes in a population. This can be any population - frogs in a pond, trees in a forest, or people in a town.
By the animal adapting they are able to reproduce more efficiently
