The pH scale is from 1-14 and if the water is on 7, it would make it a neutral substance (C).
Primary consumers (such as grazers and browsers) of the biological community will put pressure on the primary producers (these are plants) since the primary producers have limited resources (water) to reproduce due to the drought. The primary producers hence become scarce and cause the primary consumers to compete for limited resources. This causes the primary producers to reduce in population. Reduction in their population causes limited resources for secondary consumers and this cascades up the food web to tertiary consumers.
