The most likely answer is
D)Decreased number of fish species who use the estuaries. 

The Japanese model for shrimp farming in estuaries basically involves converting estuary areas into shrimp farms, isolating these areas and dedicating them solely to the farming of shrimp. This excludes other fish species from areas that were previously the environment in which they lived.

nekit [7.7K]
I think the thalamus is the gateway to the cerebral cortex. Thalamus is a small structure within the brain located just above the brain stem between the cerebral cortex and the mid brain and has extensive nerve connections to both. Its main function is to relay motor and sensory signals to the cerebral cortex. A sensory impulse travels from the body surface towards the thalamus, which receives it as a sensation, which is then passed onto the cerebral cortex for interpretation as touch, pain or temperature.

Ivenika [448]
Anatomical and molecular features often fit a similar pattern due to Homology. Homology is the existence of shared ancestry between two structures or genes in a different species. 

A process that can cause this not to be the case is Convergent Evolution.
Convergent Evolution occurs when two unrelated species independently evolve similar traits to cope with evolutionary changes.
