Answer:

With decrease in pH of ocean water, the survival rate of corals, algae, and fish in coral reef reduces.

Explanation:

Coral reefs find difficulty in living in acidic ocean water. It is so because the coral’s shell that is made up of calcium carbonate is unable to sustain in acidic environment.  

Not only this the skeleton of snails, clams, algae , fish etc is also made up of calcium carbonate. Increased acidity leads to death of these species.  

Thus, the lower is the pH of ocean water, the higher is its acidity and hence the lower is the probability of survival of corals, algae, and fish in the coral reef

nadezda [96]
The choices can be found elsewhere and as follows:

1.are soluble and can easily pass through cell membranes 
<span>2.contain long chains of amino acids and fatty acids </span>
<span>3.contain atoms of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen </span>
<span>4.are a direct result of dehydration synthesis
</span>
I believe the correct answer is option 1. When most proteins, fats, and carbohydrates are digested completely, they are converted to end products that are soluble and can easily pass through cell membranes. So as to distribute the nutrients needed in different parts of the body.
