The term bycatch or incidental catch refers to . non-target species that are caught along with commercial species species harvested for industrial purposes species raised in aquaculture settings species caught as part of traditional fisheries krill and other shellfish

The correct answer is ''non-target species that are caught along with commercial species''

Explanation:

Bycatch refers to bycatch organisms that are not targeted by the fishery. Occurs inadvertently in fishing gear, all fisheries have some unwanted bycatch. Species with little or no commercial value, juvenile stages, or discarded gravid females of the target species (s) are generally included here. These incidental catches can be marginal when fishing is carried out with selective or very substantial gear, when the gear used indiscriminately catches everything that comes along its route. In marine fisheries, it causes injury or death to mammals, birds, turtles, fish, elasmobranchs, and invertebrates.

a fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.[1] the age of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is typically millions of years, and sometimes exceeds 650 million years.[2] fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include petroleum, coal, and natural gas.[3] other commonly used derivatives include kerosene and propane. fossil fuels range from volatile materials with low carbon to hydrogen ratios like methane, to liquids like petroleum, to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields either alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates.

the theory that fossil fuels formed from the fossilized remains of dead plants by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over millions of years was first introduced by andreas libavius "in his 1597 alchemia [alchymia]" and later by mikhail lomonosov "as early as 1757 and certainly by 1763".[4] the first use of the term "fossil fuel" was by the german chemist caspar neumann, in english translation in 1759.[5]

in 2017 the world's primary energy sources consisted of petroleum (34%), coal (28%), natural gas (23%), amounting to an 85% share for fossil fuels in primary energy consumption in the world.[6] non-fossil sources in 2006 included nuclear (8.5%), hydroelectric (6.3%), and others (geothermal, solar, tidal, wind, wood, waste) amounting to 0.9%.[7] world energy consumption was growing at about 2.3% per year. in 2015 about 18% of worldwide consumption was from renewable sources.[8]
