In some third world countries "cyanide fishing" for aquarium trade is allowed. Cyanide fishing uses the cyanide to "stun" fish a

nd make them easy to catch. But the cyanide combined with handling stress has led to a mortality rate in the captured fish somewhere between 60% and 80%. Knowing this, how might this method impact the environment? Cyanide is a safe chemical, so there will not be any effect on the environment.
B) Increase cyanide levels in the water will increase the biodiversity in that area.


C) Since so many fish are being caught, there is more room for predators to flourish.


D) It could lead to overfishing, since more fish have to be caught due to the high mortality rate.

The best answer would be letter D, it could lead to over-fishing, since more fish have to be caught due to the high-mortality rate. 

Cyanide fishing is actually one of the greatest threats within the oceans and seas. It is a quick-fix solution that humans have resulted to in order to gain more profit. As a result, the environment of species in the water are directly affected.

gladu [14]

Answer:

esta es una expresión de admiración ante la belleza de los mecanismos evolutivos

Explanation:

El concepto de evolución como mecanismos naturales que está actualmente en boga fue originalmente planteado por Charles Darwin en su celebre publicación "El origen de las especies" (1859). La teoría de la evolución de Darwin está basada en la idea que las especies cambian constantemente con el tiempo a través del proceso de selección natural. Este mecanismo es responsable de la inmensa biodiversidad biológica observada en la naturaleza, la cual incluye la evolución de las especies, poblaciones y organismos individuales. Desde una perspectiva biológica, es imposible no quedar fascinado ante la naturaleza y contemplación de los procesos evolutivos.

suter [353]

Answer:

D Independent assortment occurs when chromosomes separate during meiosis and causes variations that can be beneficial or harmful to a species

Explanation:

During meiosis, the homologous chromosomes separate and segregate independently of each other. This process is referred to as 'independent assortment'. In consequence, different gene variants or 'alleles' localized in homologous chromosomes segregate independently of each other during gamete formation, thereby one particular gamete has an equal probability to carry either of these segregating alleles. Independent assortment generates genetic variation in the gametes, which can be beneficial or deleterious in a given environment.

<u>The resting </u><u>membrane</u><u> potential would become </u><u>more positive</u><u> because researchers are taking negatively charged molecules out of the cell.</u>

Which methods were used to record the resting membrane potential and action potential of the squid axon choose all that apply ?

  • The squid axon's action potential and resting membrane potential were captured using the following experimental strategy.
  • Using a recording microelectrode inside the cell that is connected to a second electrode outside the cell .

What is cell membrane ?

  • All cells have a cell membrane, also known as a plasma membrane, which separates the interior of the cell from the external environment.
    A semipermeable lipid bilayer makes up the cell membrane.
  • The movement of materials into and out of the cell is controlled by the cell membrane.

What are the functions of a cell membrane?

  • The cell membrane, therefore, has two functions: first, to be a barrier keeping the constituents of the cell in and unwanted substances out .
  • second, to be a gate allowing transport into the cell of essential nutrients and movement from the cell of waste products.
