If you continue posting questions with wild-guess answers, I'll delete them.

Umm alot of people in the olden days used lamp oils some prefered that over wax candles

Ms. Sue, no offense, but stop making assumptions you can't justify. How do you know it's a wild-guess answer?

That's insulting their intelligence.

yeah i agree with Jeff, b/c you never know how or what their intelligence is capable.

Ms. sue i just have one question for you why do you have to jump into every post and be such a snarky stick int he mud i mean people need help alot of the books suck and public school teachers don't care anymore i mean people come and ask for help and you just spit in their face most of the time and start screaming cheater lazy stop guessing do your work the problem is people try and i don't think you realise most people come to this as a last resort when they hve tried and studied and still cant get it right all im saying is you should really take the time to think before you go and accuse people of being lazy and ignorant

i mean i understand where you are coming from all im sying is there is no need to be rude about it :)

You are on the right track! Fish are indeed a vital source for various purposes besides human food. Let's evaluate the different options:

A. Lamp oil: Historically, fish oil has been used as a source of fuel for lamps. However, nowadays, other sources of oil, such as petroleum, are more commonly used for this purpose.

B. Fertilizer: Fish are a rich source of nutrients, including nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Therefore, fish can be processed to make fertilizer that nourishes plants and helps them grow.

C. Industrial lubricants: Fish oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, which can provide lubrication properties. These properties make fish oil a potential ingredient for industrial lubricants, although it's not the most common source.

D. Lotion and creams: Fish oil is also used in various cosmetic and personal care products, including lotions and creams. Its omega-3 fatty acids provide moisturizing and nourishing benefits for the skin.

Therefore, of the four options you provided, B, fertilizer, and D, lotion and creams, are both accurate answers. Fish are indeed a vital source for these purposes, as they contribute to both agricultural practices and cosmetic industries.
