Answer:

D. Increased sunlight and increased nutrients will increase phytoplankton populations.

Explanation:

Both sunlight and nutrients are required by phytoplankton communities. We know that <u>phytoplanktons</u> are <u>primary producers</u> and they produce food via <u>photosynthetic activities</u>. To carry out photosynthesis, <u>presence of (inorganic) nutrients and sunlight is highly important</u>. In this process, energy is fixed in energy rich molecules such as glucose and organism multiply and/or gain biomass. A decrease in any of them will result into reduced photosynthesis and hence reduced phytoplankton population growth.

<h3>What does the biological term replicate mean?</h3>

Reproduction is the process of producing descendants. The two basic types of reproduction are sexual and asexual. A sexually reproducing organism is genetically different and has the genetic information of both of its mothers. Genetically identical children are produced through asexual reproduction by having each parent repeat itself.

<h3>What is the name of the reproductive process?</h3>

Reproduction is the process by which new individual creatures, or "offspring," are produced from the "parent" or "parents" (or procreation or breeding). Reproduction is a fundamental element of all known life, and it is the reason that every single organism exists.
