The correct answer is D.

The decrease in white blood cell count in the human blood is known as leukopenia. This disease affects the body's ability to counter diseases and infections. A low blood count can result in the affected person becoming very susceptible to infections.

The primary function of white blood cells in the body is to fight and neutralize infections. Once the white blood   cell count  significantly  dips below the normal level, the body's defense is compromised  and so becomes susceptible  to  infections.

Part 1 - Pick one abiotic factor and change it dramatically. (Example: remove it completely or increase it A lot)

1. Water is abioitic and is needed by every living organism Soil is abioitic and is needed by plants Trees and other plants release water vapor from their leaves (a process called transpiration) that create humidity (which in turn influences how much rain falls in an area) The climate in an area influences the special adaptations that plants and animals have. For example: warm fur coats and thick layers of fat to keep warm in cold climates, animals in dry, hot climates (desert) have large ears to release heat and cool down. Biotic factors also influence abiotic factors. Animals produce waste (go to the bathroom) which in turn will become nutrients in the soil.
2. decrease heat will affect biotic factors, like animals, warmth.

Hope this helped :)
