Correct answer: C. culture of aquatic organisms
- A. culture of finfish

- C. culture of aquatic organisms
- D. culture of shrimp and Tilapia
Explanation
Aquaculture is the controlled cultivation or farming of aquatic organisms, including fish, shellfish, algae and other species. Finfish, shellfish, shrimp and tilapia are only particular examples, so none of those narrower choices gives the complete definition. Students may choose finfish because fish farming is common, but aquaculture covers more than fish.
