FISHERY.
(1a)
(i) Fishing Gear: Tools for fishing like rods, nets, and lures.
(ii) Fishing Craft: Boats used for fishing activities.
(1b)
(i) Partial Harvesting: This involves selectively harvesting mature fish from the pond while leaving some behind to continue growing. It allows for continuous production over time.
(ii) Complete Harvesting: In this method, all the fish in the pond are harvested at once. After harvesting, the pond is usually drained, cleaned, and restocked with new fish.
(1c)
(i) Select Broodstock: Pick healthy, mature fish.
(ii) Administer Hormones: Stimulate spawning.
(iii) Collect Eggs and Sperm: From selected fish.
(iv) Fertilize Eggs: Combine eggs and sperm.
(v) Incubate: Hatch eggs in controlled conditions.
(vi) Manage Hatchery: Care for larvae until mature.
(1d)
(i) Appearance: Males and females look different.
(ii) Reproductive Organs: Females have ovaries, males have testes.
(iii) Secondary Traits: Males may have distinct markings or features during breeding.

(ii)Topography: The topography of the site should be relatively flat to avoid the cost of earthworks. The site should also be free from flooding.
(iii)Water Supply: A reliable water supply is necessary to keep the pond filled and to maintain the water quality of the pond.
(iv)Climate: The climate of the site should be favorable for fish growth. Temperatures should not be too low or too high. Adequate rainfall is also important for water supply.

(iv) Fresh fish will have clear, bright, and bulging eyes, while spoiled fish may have cloudy, sunken, or dull eyes.
(v) One difference between fresh and spoiled fish in terms of belly is that fresh fish will have a clean and intact belly, while spoiled fish may have a bloated or distended belly.
(5c)
(i)Proper storage temperature: Fish should be stored at a temperature below 40°F (4°C) to slow down bacterial growth and preserve freshness.
(ii)Hygiene and cleanliness: Fish should be handled with clean hands and kept in clean and sanitized containers to avoid contamination.
(iii)Quick chilling: After catching or purchasing fish, it should be quickly chilled using ice or refrigeration to prevent bacterial growth.
(iv)Proper packaging: Fish should be packed in airtight and leak-proof containers to prevent exposure to air, which can cause oxidation and spoilage.
(v)Proper handling and transportation: Fish should be handled gently and transported in proper temperature-controlled containers to minimize damage and maintain freshness.
(5d)
A by-catch in fisheries refers to the unintended capture of non-target species or undersized fish during fishing operations. The term “by-catch” is used to describe the incidental catch that occurs alongside the desired catch in fisheries.
