Answer:

The correct answer is synergism.

Explanation:

In synergism, two or more substances interact with each other and produce a greater combined effect than the sum of the effect produced by them separately. So in synergism two chemicals enhance their overall effect when works together. For example, when a cancer patient is given chemotherapy and radiation together it shows better results than when these two therapy are used separately.

So, in this case, X and Y chemicals individually have a limited effect on fish but when used together their combined effect becomes greater which becomes toxic to the fishes that show that it is an example of synergism.

What is a gatekeeper in medical
crimeas [40]

A gatekeeper is a health care professional, usually a primary care physician or a physician extender, who is the patient's first contact with the health care system and triages the patient's further access to the system.

When used in relation to health insurance, a gatekeeper describes the person in charge of a patient's treatment. Anyone who receives health insurance coverage in the form of a managed care plan, specifically a health maintenance organization (HMO) plan, is assigned a gatekeeper or allowed to choose one.

(Hope this helps!)
