Question

A group of scientists wants to observe the adaptation of a foreign fish species in a river ecosystem. To do this, they want to enclose the top and sides of a section of a river to block light and matter from entering the area. Evaluate whether this experimental system is an isolated system. Justify your answer based on the definition of an isolated system.

Answer 1

This is a kind of isolated system where scientists can carefully observe foreign fish species.  Here they can conclude if the fish could survive in a different environment. This controlled environment can give them a better observation of the experiment they are studying.
