The incorrect among the choices is "<span>direct signaling involves the activation of g proteins"
This is incorrect because direct signaling does not involve the activation of g proteins rather it involves the activation of ion channels resulting to either an excitation reaction (depolarization of the membrane) or an inhibition reaction (hyperpolarization of the membrane); and this will ultimately affect the action of the organ the nerve is innervating.</span>
Answer: Those which can adapt and withstand the high acidity levels of water.
The pond slowly becomes more acidic due to release of chemicals from a nearby factory. The chemicals released are acidic and toxic which will cause biomagnification in the pond water. Those organisms which can withstand the high acidic pH of water will survive. Others which can undergo adaptations can also survive.
