Discuss a number of actions that could limit the biotic potential of the yellowtail flounder

What will be an ideal response?


Because yellowtail flounders produce a tremendous number of eggs the best answers should include factors that impact egg number, embryonic development or the survival of young flounders. Some factors would be predation, disease, temperature (increase temp could encourage disease), pollution (could decrease oxygen, also cause developmental abnormalities, resource partitioning, habitat loss, over fishing (a form of predation).
