An aquaculture facility hatched salmon eggs and tagged and released young fish into a river leading to the ocean. The fish fed a

nd grew in the ocean, and in a few years some of the fish returned to the facility whereas some were found at other locations. Because the number of returning fish was low and the facility wanted to increase the rate of return to the facility, a scientist suggested adding a chemical to the river that would _________.

Answer: enable them to imprint on the facility

Explanation:

The addition of the chemicals to the river will help the fishes to recognize that this was their native habitat where they got birth and grew. This will act as a imprint formed by the facility which will help the fishes to recognize the water of the facility. This will help in increasing the number of fishes which return back to the facility.

A student is considering adding Egeria densa, an aquatic plant, to her freshwater tank. She is concerned about the effects of pH
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
Egeria densa is an aquatic plant which has developed different means of carrying out photosynthesis under conditions of low carbon dioxide. During the process, the plant generate low pH at the leaf surface during high light intensity and this acidification shift the process equilibrium towards carbon dioxide which will then diffuse into the cell through passive diffusion.
Thus, if the student place the plant inside her fresh water tank, the plant will increase the carbon dioxide content of the water, which will lead to an increase in pH and the increase in pH will negatively affect the fish.
