What was the economic impact on Newfoundland of this decision? Did the stocks of Atlantic Cod recover

1 answer:

4 0

In 1992 the Canadian Federal Minister of Fisheries and Oceans declared a moratorium on the Northern Cod fishery when the Northern Cof biomass fell to 1% of its earlier level. Over 35,000 fishers and plant workers from over 400 coastal communities across Newfoundland became unemployed. This increased economic diversification, and increased emphasis on education, and the emergence of a thriving invertebrates fishing industry (as the predatory groundfish population declined, snow crab and northern shrimp proliferated, providing the basis for a new industry that is roughly equivalent in economic value as the cod fishery it replaced).

Nondisjunction is a phenomena at which chromosomes are not properly separated during anaphase. This can either happen at meiosis I or meiosis II during oogenesis. Nondisjunction would explain the XO chromosomic condition of the daughter with Turner syndrome as well as the X-linked recessive allele of the red green color blindness. Nondisjunction happened in the mother because the father could not inherited an X-linked condition.

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The rift valley formed when the crust pulled apart.

The statement that best describes how the Great Rift Valley in Africa formed is that they formed when the crust pulled apart.

This is geologically known as divergence.
The Arabian plate and the Nubian/Somali plate are divergent plates.
They are currently moving apart and away from each other.
This creates a crack on the earth which is what formed the rift valley in Africa.
Along such margins, earthquake activities are prominent.
