Answer: A. Succession theory predicted exactly how Mount Saint Helens would recover.

Mount Saint Helens volcanic eruptions was an example of ecological succession after a catastrophic event that occurred in 1980. Charlie Crisafulli was a ecologists who visited the volcanic site along with his colleagues to collect ecological data. He noted the development of ecological relationships across the volcanic landmass. He documented the types, amounts and distribution of surviving organisms, which further took forward the responsibility of colonization in a destructed habitat. This was the example of secondary succession in which succession occurs after the natural calamity has disturbed the natural ecosystem. The species living there were able to colonize the landmass again after volcanic eruption. Therefore, the succession theory predicted exactly how Mount Saint Helens would recover.

What happens to the amount of light as you go deeper into aquatic system

gavmur [86]

Light bends when it hits water so it can only travel so far. So the deeper you go the less light there will be.

Explanation:

The ocean is broken into three zones based on intensity and light level. The upper 200 meters (656 feet) of the ocean is called the euphotic, or "sunlight," zone. This zone includes the vast preponderance of commercial fisheries and is home to many preserved marine mammals and sea turtles.Only a small amount of light penetrates behind this depth.The zone between 200 meters (656 feet) and 1,000 meters (3,280 feet) is usually regarded to as the “Twilight” zone, but is authorized the dysphotic zone. In this zone, the intensity of light rapidly consumes as depth increases. Such a miniscule amount of light penetrates beyond a depth of 200 meters that photosynthesis is no eternal possible.The aphotic, or “midnight,” zone survives in depths below 1,000 meters (3,280 feet). Sunlight does not perceive to these depths and the zone is immersed in darkness.
