true
false

Explanation:

Question 1: When sharks are caught, the entire shark is kept

In reality, often only parts of sharks (like fins) are kept, and the rest is discarded, so the statement is false.

Sharks have economic value in areas like fishing (for fins, meat, liver oil), tourism (shark - watching), etc., so they provide significant economic benefits, making the statement false.

Shark liver oil (containing squalene) is indeed used in cosmetics, and also for preserving leather and wood, so the statement is true.

Answer:

B. False

Question 2: Sharks provide little economic benefits
