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

and then released to the wild. However, researchers have found that hatchery-raised salmon have reduced reproductive success in the wild, compared to wild salmon. They have also identified many genetic differences between hatchery-raised and wild salmon.

The differences in the wild and hatcheries make it so the different salmon adapt differently and have different traits.

If salmon are split up into different habitats, one being in the wild and one being in captivity, they will eventually have different adaptations from each other and their offspring will develop traits that are better suited for their environment.

Wild salmon and salmon that are raised in captivity are going to be very different from each other. The salmon in captivity do not have to actively hunt for their food, be wary of certain predators, or may not want to reproduce.

Taking these factors into account, it is very possible that the salmon raised in captivity will have reduced reproductive success compared to the salmon that thrive in the wild. Along with this, they would most likely have many genetic differences from each other and other traits that better adapt to their living situations.

Why are Islamic extremists trying to start a war with the United States?
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

They want Arab countries to reject Western values and punish America for supporting Israel

Explanation:

The Islamic extremists have been in constant conflict with the USA for quite some time now. The main reasons for this is that they want to stop any Western values from reaching and influencing their societies, and also to punish America for its support for Israel. Israel is seem as the main enemy and it is the most hated country by pretty much all Muslim nations, especially the ones from the Middle East and North Africa, so the American support for this nation is seen as support for their biggest enemy. Because of this, there has been thousands of terrorist attacks, as well as wars that lasted for years, and the majority of the people that suffered on both sides were of course the innocent people that have nothing to do with it.
