Case Study 1: Oysters in Chesapeake Bay

Read the Case Study and answer the questions at the end. Remember, the point of this assignment is to get you to critically examine a given situation and apply what you know from science and other sources to it. In many cases with case studies, there is no one 'correct' answer to some these questions, instead, it is your opinion that is backed up by fact. Remember that saying why you chose what you chose is what I am looking for.
