The correct answer is C. 1995

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph shows the changes in the harvest of Atlantic cod. In general, this graph illustrates how the peak occurred in the 1980s but then there was a sudden and sharp decline in 1995. Indeed, 1995 is the year with the lowest number of harvested cod as in this year there were approximately least than 10 thousand metric tonnes of cods. Also, this year shows the collapse of fishing stocks or that the population of this fish collapsed, which made it impossible to harvest as many fish as in previous years. According to this, the year that shows the collapse of fishing stocks is 1995.
