Question 8
Consumer demand and _(8)_ scientific information has led to overharvesting, reducing fish species and fish stocks around the world. But researchers have developed a model that allows fisheries to meet rising consumer demand while ensuring adequate income and _(9)_ of natural stocks. Finding the "sweet spot" -- where the world's fisheries can function all the while protecting natural fish stocks -- was the goal of the new model. It gives fisheries and conservation managers a tool for balancing those _(10)_ demands. They developed the model using information about landed fish catches and prices for any species to determine by how much a given fishery has been overharvested. Basically, the model encourages fisheries to reduce short-term harvests in order to realize higher long-term _(11)_ without sacrificing economic return. The model is based on the _(12)_ that it's just as profitable to have high catches and low prices as high prices and lower catches. That strategy also helps ensure a more sustainable fishery over the long-term.

Question 44
It’s long been known that carnivorous plants allure their insect prey in a range of ways: _(44)_ nectars, vivid colors and alluring scents that range from rose to rotten flesh.
But recently, scientists discovered a previously hidden means of beckoning among the most ruthless of greenery. Scientists believe that insects are attracted to carnivorous plants by their odors and colors, but hard evidence as to what exactly _(45)_ the bugs to their deaths was previously unknown. In a stroke of _(46)_, they put several carnivorous plants under ultraviolet light and photographed what they saw. They found UV-induced blue emissions. This is the first time such distinct _(47)_ emissions were ever detected in the plant kingdom. Under normal light, these bright, glowing rims would look green to humans. But an ant—which is extremely sensitive to blue and violet light—would see rings of blue fluorescence. Thus, fluorescence emissions from these plants could be acting as major visual _(48)_ luring these mammals towards them.
