The correct option is C.
An ocean is a very important abiotic factor in any environment and it have impacts on the climate of the environments where it is found. The ocean currents are driven by the global wind system, which is powered by the energy of the sun. These currents transfer heat to the polar regions from the tropics and brings about the cooling of their environment, thus giving rise to cool climate.
Genetic adaptability is very important to the survival and adaptability of any specie. This is because, in a diverse population, the possibility of finding individuals with the right genetic adaptability to the changing environment is higher, the population will have more possible adaptations.
The most important factor which determines whether the living things can survive in a body of water s its salinity. The salinity level of the water is the factor at play in deciding which of the living organisms live inside the water. The salinity of the organisms has to be similar to the salinity level of the water in order for them to survive, otherwise, they will be dehydrated as a result of osmosis.
Hence, the answer is 'salinity'.
