Answer:
Fishing down the food web is the process whereby fisheries in a given ecosystem, "having depleted the large predatory fish on top of the food web, turn to increasingly smaller species, finally ending up with previously spurned small fish and invertebrates".
Answer:
The correct option is lamprey.
Explanation:
Lamprey is a kind of fish which lack jaws. They lack a true skeleton, but the cartilage is present in them. Due to lack of proper backbone, they look similar to snails. The lamprey reproduces by laying eggs in the water. Larvae tend to develop from these eggs. The lamprey releases its eggs only in freshwater. Only the mature lamprey live in the sea to act as a parasite and take food. For laying eggs, it travels to freshwater.
Answer:
soil and vegetative matter screening for soil structure integrity and invasive pathogens
Explanation:
Repeated use of fertilizer causes the soil to break down and lose it nutrient capacity. This in turn will affect the integrity of the plants, now in a nutrient deficit environment. In addition to this, soil micro-biome environment may also be compromised once soil structure and nutrient is lost. Some of the bacteria, fungi and protozoan in the soil plays a role in defense against invasive pathogens. When this is lost the possibility for infection and increased risk of unknown pest and disease is imminent.
