Section A

  1. Give an account of the natural sources, the production and the use of carrageenans.
  2. Explain what is meant by the term ‘integrated aquaculture’ and discuss its advantages and limitations.
  3. Discuss the relative importance of biotic and abiotic factors on the vertical zonation of seaweeds on a shore.
