In cod fishing, older and larger fish are more likely to be retained in nets than younger and smaller fish. Despite the removal of these large breeders, the population is still reproducing. How do you think cod characteristics have changed due to the selection pressure from over-fishing?

Answer:

d.

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that the the mostly likely change from this scenario would be that the selection has led to decreases in the size of fish at the age of reproductive maturity. This because if only the smaller fish are able to escape the nets, then those smaller fish need to have reproduced in order for the population to remain the same.
