Bony fish belong to Class Osteichthyes, while cartilaginous fish belong to Class Chondrichthyes. Bony fish have a bony skeleton, while cartilaginous fish have one composed mostly of cartilage. Bony fish have body coverings of scales, while cartilaginous fish are covered with dendritical projections (think shark skin).
Bony fish are found in fresh and salt water; cartilaginous fish are found only in salt water. Bony fish have gills covered by an operculum; cartilaginous fish have gill slits. Bony have no eyelids; the cartilaginous fish do. Bony fish have an air-filled swim bladder; cartilaginous fish have an oil-filled liver to keep them bouyant. Hope this helps! Whew!
C is the answer. Due to the current state of the world economy; people, if left to their own devices, would fish as much as possible so they can sell their fish to make money. Current technology means we can catch as many fish as we want (trawlers etc.). The problem with this is that there is only a finite amount of fish in the sea. If we were to fish them without limits in place, we could cause them to go extinct.
For the environmental risk, it is much better to prevent pollution than to deal with it after it has already been made. When you deal with the pollution, it is hard to say that you can eliminate completely. So, prevention is the first strategy.
Answer:
D. altering it to fit within the hypothesis
Explanation:
An experiment is carried out to fill an inquisition i.e. to answer a question. According to the scientific method, prior to experimentation, there must be a HYPOTHESIS. The hypothesis is tested for rejection or approval via experimentation.
After the experiment has been conducted, several things can be done with the data obtained. For example:
- Data can be interpreted
- the data can be plotted in a graph to find correlations
- It can be analyzed it with statistical analysis.
One thing that should never be done is; altering the data from experimentation to fit in the hypothesis.
