Answer:
Carbon, sulfur, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen
Explanation:
B) decrease genetic diversity
Genetic Diversity refers to vast differences in genetic makeup (genotype) and thus often phenotype as well. The more that extreme genes/traits are excluded in survival and/or reproduction, leading to stabilizing selection, then the more genetically "same" or similar the population will evolve to long-term. Similarity is the opposite of diversity. Thus A) is dead wrong, B) is accurate, and both C) & D) are incorrect because "rare" means not common or "extreme." And extreme traits are exactly what decrease through stabilizing selection.
Hope that this.helps! :)

Explanation:
No Clean Water: We may live on a water planet, but 97.5% of that water is ocean and other undrinkable salt-filled sources. Only 2.5% of the water on this planet is fresh, and of that, 1% is either too polluted to be consumed or entirely unreachable. Much of it remains frozen in the form of polar ice caps. All told, less than 1% of the planet’s freshwater resources are available for consumption.
Lower Life Expectancy: Thanks to medical intervention, human beings can live to be up to 100 years old — as long as they live in developed countries where they have access to that medical care. One study, done by researchers at Harvard, found that the majority of population increases over the next 40 years or so will be in less developed countries.
Climate Change: We’ve been seeing the results of climate change firsthand in the dramatic weather patterns of 2017 — multiple category five hurricanes, dramatic wildfires and floods, and other atypical weather patterns that are threatening both lives and property.
