Item #10
SUSTAINABLE FISH FARMING
Introduction
The diagram shows a design for an experimental fish farm with three large tanks. Filtered salt water is pumped from the ocean before flowing from tank to tank until it is returned to the ocean. The primary goal of the fish farm is to grow common sole to be harvested in a sustainable way.
● Common Sole: The fish being farmed. Their preferred food is ragworms.
The following organisms will also be used in the farm
● Microalgae: Microscopic organisms that only need light and nutrients to grow
.● Ragworks: Invertebrates that grow very rapidly on a diet of microalgae
.● Shellfish: Organisms that feed on microalgae and other small organisms in the water.
● Marsh Grass: Grasses that absorb nutrients and wastes from the water
Question 1/1 Refer to the information. Use drag and drop to answer the question. (Manipulative)
The researchers need to decide in which tank each organism should be placed. Drag and drop each of the organisms below to the appropriate tank above to ensure that the Common Sole is fed and that salt water is returned to the ocean unchanged. The micro-algae are already in the correct tank
Ragworms and Common Sole into Tank 3 and Marsh Grass and Shellfish into Tank 2
Ragworms and Common Sole into Tank 2 and Marsh Grass and Shellfish into Tank3
Marsh Grass and Common Sole into Tank 2 and Ragworms and Shellfish into Tank3
