In cod fishing, older and larger fish are more likely to be retained in nets than younger and smaller fish. Despite the removal
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

D. Selection has led to decreases in the size of fish at the age of reproductive maturity.

Explanation:

The larger body size of the fishes is not an adaptive trait as it reduces the survival chances of these fishes. The process of natural selection tends to increase the frequency of the traits that increase the survival fitness of the organisms. Here, the fishes with smaller body size at the reproductive age have greater chances of survival and would reproduce more to leave more progeny. Over the generations, the selection pressure would increase the proportion of fishes that are smaller during reproductive age.

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

D. stabilizes the position of the kidneys by holding them in their normal position

Adipose tissue is a type of connective tissue and is therefore called by some adipose connective tissue. As we saw in the article “Connective Tissue Cells”, adipose tissue is made up of adipose cells, also called adipocytes. Fat tissue specializes in fat storage and is found well below the skin.

Some of our internal organs like kidneys and heart have a layer of adipose tissue lining them. This layer of fat around the organs gives them greater protection against mechanical shock. In addition, in the kidneys, adipose tissue fills the voids between other tissues and helps keep these organs in their normal positions.

Divergent faults form when tectonic plates _____. move away from one another stop moving crash into one another slide past each
AleksAgata [21]

Correct answer: A). Move away from one another

The divergent boundaries are formed when the tectonic plate move away from each other. It forms volcanic islands that occur when the plates move away in order to produce gaps that are filled by molten lava.

The divergent boundary contributes to the formation of seafloor spreading. When the plates that are made up of oceanic crust move away from each other, a crack in the ocean floor appears. Then the magma oozes out from the mantle to fill that crack that results in ocean ridges.

Hence, the correct answer would be option A.
