They have developed a substantial body of theory that has been applied successfully to a large number of animal populations and has led to a major improvement in the management of some of the ma jor marine fisheries. The theory has been developed for single species populations with man as a predator. Much of it is based on the Darwinian concept of a constant overpopulation of young that is reduced by density dependent mortality resulting form intraspecific competition. The unfished population tends toward a maximum equilibrium size with a relatively high proportion of large, old individuals. As fishing increased and natural mortality is reduced, death from fishin eventually takes the place of most natural mortality. If the amount of fishing is increased too much, the indivduals will tend to be taken before realizing their potential growth, and total yield will be reduced. The maximum sustainable yields can be taken at an intermediate population size that in some populations is about one third the unfished population size G V Nikolskii, of Moscow State University, develops his theory from a different approach. He is non Darwinian and is(he says)a nonmathematician; rather he considers himself as ecologist and morphologist. He argues that Darwins s concept of constant overpopulation has led to the eglect of the problem of protecting spawns and young fish. He argues also that Darwin s concept of a variety as an incipient species have led to extensive mathematical analysis of racial characters. Nikolskii considers the main laws of population dynamics to be concerned with the succession of generations; their birth, growth, and death. The details are governed by the relative rates of adaptaton and environmental change. The mass and age structure of a population are the result of adaptation to the food supply.

The mass and age structure of a population are the result
of adaptation to the food supply. The rate of growth of individuals, the time of sexual maturity, and the accumulation of reserves vary according to the food supply. These factors in turn influence the success of reproduction in ways that tend to bring the size of the population into balance with its food supply. 51. Nikolskill theorizes that fish population is controlled mainly by the A size of the fish caught within a species B racial characteristics of the species C amount of food available to the species D death rate within a species 52. The author indicates the main difference between the theories of darwin and nikolskii A effect of food supply on the size of the fish B the amount of fish that can be harvested C methods used to catch fish D cause of population variation in fish 3. The theories based on the concepts of Darwin assume that fish population is controlled mainly by the B amount of fishing pressure of the species C racial characteristics of the species D. life expectancy within the species 4. The researchers discussed in the passage were mainly concerned with A species of fish faced with extinction B the ecology of fishing C the effects of pollution on fishing D. commercial fishing 2 There are people in Italy who can t stand soccer.
