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. Which statement describes the most likely reason for the differences between hatchery-raised and wild salmon? A. The pressures of a hatchery environment and of the wild environment select for different traits. B. Hatchery-raised salmon develop into stronger swimmers than those raised in the wild. C. The pressures of a hatchery environment promote convergent evolution between hatchery-raised and wild salmon. D. Hatchery-raised salmon have evolved to have completely different genomes from those of wild salmon.

Option A, The pressures of a hatchery environment and of the wild environment select for different traits.


The various pressures in wild environment include the competition for food and survival, threat of prey etc. The effect of domestication on salmon can also be a reason for its low productivity in wild environment. Some other factors that might have affected the regular productivity of salmon in wild environment include- captive rearing, inbreeding among close relatives and ability of some fish to adapt to the unique hatchery environment.

​(f) contact a local hospital and ask them the percentage of the population that is blood type o. why might the results​ differ?
Fudgin [204]
Contacting a local hospital and asking them the percentage of the population that has blood type O will generate different results. 

The factors that we have to consider why there is differing results are:
1) location of the hospital
2) nationality of their patients
3) number of their patients

I am assuming that the population that question is referring to is the number of patients in the local hospital. The bigger the population, the smaller the effect a unit has on the whole and vice versa. 

I read an article that states that 37% of the U.S. population has O+ blood type. These people are usually of Hispanic descent or some Asian descent. So, if a hospital is in a locality that has a majority of Hispanic or Asian patients, its percentage will be higher than a hospital that is located in a Caucasian-populated area. 

Aside from Type O+ (most common), blood types also include: O-, A+, A-, B+, B-, AB+, and AB- (rarest blood type)

I think the answer is glucose + fructose - sucrose. If yes, then how to justify the answer.
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer: Your guess is right

Explanation: Other reactions release energy, so forming sucrose from glucose and fructose is endoergic. Also a water molecule is formed.

When two molecules form new molecule, order is increased and energy is needed that. IT could also possible to use standard energies of formation.
