Question

Based on the empirical data and information you have learned about

ecosystems and the services they provide, do you support or refute the claim that increases in wetlands, forested buffers, and submerged aquatic vegetation will result in increases in the blue crab population and other fisheries over time? Include appropriate evidence andscientific reasoning to support your claim.

Answer 1

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, I support the claim that increases in wetlands, forested buffers, and submerged aquatic vegetation will result in increases in the blue crab population and other fisheries because these wetlands, forested buffers and submerged aquatic vegetation provides habitat and food to the crabs and other fishes. Due to availability of suitable environment and more food availability to the crab and fishes which leads to increase their population.
