Answer: A) By increasing the need for genetic engineering of fish    

Fish is a globally accepted source of food, with the increase in population all over the world the demand for fish as a source of food is also increasing. Genetic engineering is a field of biotechnology in which the genome of the organism is manipulated by addition, deletion or substitution. This is done to improve the productivity of the animals and plant crops and to obtain desires characteristics in them.

A) By increasing the need for genetic engineering of fish is the correct option which can directly improve fish agriculture because a fish species can be genetically modified so that it can be able to produce more number of offsprings and nutritious quality of flesh, useful for human consumption.

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

1. Mutation

2. Epigenetics

Explanation:

1. Mutation occurs when there is a change in an organism's DNA sequence as a result of mistakes in DNA replication or as a result of environmental factors like smoking. The mutation in a single organism can be passed on to other generations hence causing a genetic variation in the population, this obeys the Darwin's law that inherited traits (genetic) are passed on to other generations

2. Epigenetics are changes in gene expression that doesn't involve changes in the DNA sequences unlike mutation. This changes can be passed on to other generations and hence cause a variation in the population. This obeys the Lamarckian evolution that acquired traits are passed on to other generations.

A mutation is a change that occurs in our DNA sequence, either due to mistakes when the DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light and cigarette smoke.
