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.

Answer:

At the beginning you start out with a lot of energy and stamina but as you progress, maybe five minutes in, you start to get out of breath. While breathing harder, you are trying to intake more oxygen and at the 10 minute mark you can feel your muscles burning a little bit and tire out more. At this point you are gasping for oxygen because your muscles are deprived of oxygen and you body makes lactic acids which you muscles can use instead of oxygen. By the end of it you are very tired.

Explanation:

Hope this helps! I am not sure how scientific of an explanation you wanted.

What is the relationship between genes DNA and proteins
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Although you might have heard people talk about a gene for red hair, green eyes or other characteristics, it's important to remember that genes code for proteins, not traits. While your genetic makeup does indeed determine physical traits like eye color, hair color and so forth, your genes affect these traits indirectly by way of the proteins created via DNA.

Hopefully, this answer helped! :D
