Hey there!
The answer is D, Salinity.
Salinity is the concentration of salt in water. Ocean water often has high salinity and this can contribute to things like upwelling and water density- but these all start from salinity.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
V ∝ abc
Explanation:
This task is a joint variation task involving only direct proportionality:
Direct variation is one in which two variables are in direct proportionality to each other. This means that as one increases, the other variable also increases and vice - versa.
Joint variation is one in which one variable is dependent on two or more variables and varies directly as each of them.
In this exercise:
If a ∝ b and a ∝ c, then a ∝ bc
Taking the above three proportionalities,
V ∝ a ∝ b ∝ c
V ∝ a ∝ bc
V ∝ abc
Other factors that affect how much light<span> is absorbed, reflected and </span>scattered concerns<span> the </span>light<span> itself and how it arrived at the surface of the </span>object<span>, such as the wavelength (color) of the </span>light<span>, and. the angle at which it reaches the surface.</span>
