Question

11 complete this statement. if fishing rules are not established and monitored...
a) then all species of marine organisms will overpopulate the oceans. (color grey)
b) then the earth’s climate and weather will be altered. (color purple)
c) then the species can go extinct due to overharvesting the fish. (color white)
d) then the number of top predators will increase. (color red)

Explanation:

Without fishing rules and monitoring, unregulated overfishing can deplete fish populations to the point of extinction. The other options are incorrect: unregulated fishing would reduce, not overpopulate, marine organisms; it does not directly alter global climate; and top predators would decrease, not increase, as their food sources are depleted.

Answer:

c) then the species can go extinct due to overharvesting the fish. (color WHITE)
