Answer:
Carrying capacity can be decreased by disease, an increase in predation, hunting or harvesting by humans, a decrease in available habitat such as habitat destruction by humans, parasites, competition with another species for a resource, or changes in the weather that make the species less suited to the environment.
The carrying capacity of an environment may be decreased by increased activity of predators, diseases, climate change, human activities, habitat destructions, etc.
What is Carrying capacity?Carrying capacity may be defined as the maximum number of individuals that can be supported by a habitat.
The carrying capacity of the same habitat may be different for different species. It actually depends on how a species utilizes the resources present in that habitat.
The carrying capacity of any species in its habitat depends on the numer of predators, the flow of diseases, the influence of human activities like overgrazing, industrialization, harvesting, habitat destructions, etc.
Therefore, it is well described above.

how do the germinal discs differ between the eggs?why?
Answer:
Germinal disk (blastoderm) -- a small, circular, white spot (2-3 mm across) on the surface of the yolk; it is where the sperm enters the egg. The nucleus of the egg is in the blastodisc. The embryo develops from this disk, and gradually sends blood vessels into the yolk to use for nutrition as the embryo develops.
Explanation:

What is a disadvantage to Hydroelectricity?
Answer:
Water levels are lower than usual.
Answer:
Hydropower can impact water quality and flow. Hydropower plants can cause low dissolved oxygen levels in the water, a problem that is harmful to riparian (riverbank) habitats and is addressed using various aeration techniques, which oxygenate the water.
