A population of trout in a lake has significantly declined over the past year. The main source of food for the fish in this lake

are aquatic insects. Due to poor climate conditions, there are significantly fewer insects and thus, not enough food to sustain the population of trout in the lake. Trout is a food supply for larger fish in the lake and without enough trout, other fish are negatively impacted in the lake. What is the problem?
a. Trout population has increased

b. Insect population has increased

c. Insect population has decreased

d. Larger fish population has increased

The decline in the overall population of trout and larger fish is because the Insect population has decreased.

<h3>What is a population?</h3>

A population is a group of organisms of the same species living in the same habitat.

Population of organisms is affected by;

  • availability of water
  • space
  • food and nutrients
  • predators
  • climate change

Since the population of trout is directly affected by the number of insect species, the decline in the overall population is because the Insect population has decreased.

Answer:

cause cells to shrink due to an increase in the osmolarity of extracellular fluid.

Explanation:

Normovolemic describes the situation in which a living organism maintains a normal volume or amount of blood in the body.

A hyperosmotic solution can be defined as a solution having an increased level of osmotic pressure. Thus, when there's a greater amount of solute with respect to another solution in a membrane with close similarities, it is known as hyperosmotic solution.

Basically, hyperosmotic solution gives rise to higher difference between solutes and similar solutions.

Hence, when a normovolemic person consumes a large quantity of a hyperosmotic solution, it will cause cells to shrink due to an increase in the osmolarity of extracellular fluid i.e the total number of solute particles with respect to the concentration of a solution (Osm/L).
