Fishing is a major part of many Caribbean economies. The yellowtail snapper and
Nassau grouper are important food fishes. However, a lack of adequate regulation
has led to overfishing in many areas and consequent damage to reefs.
When grouper fishing is set to 70% what happens to the population of others fish
populations in the reef?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The reef collapses.

Explanation:

  • The variety of life in the Caribbean makes up the reefs and when they are taken away by the fishermen and leaving the areas without fish population the population of other fish also declines and it impacts the reef formation and growth. The corals cannot survive with them and thus collapses the entire marine ecosystem.
