Answer:

c. Amino acids          

Explanation:

             BBB stands for the blood brain barrier. The proper functioning of the brain is meant by the amino acids. Amino acids are most necessary for  production of proteins which are essential for the working of any cell.

           In general antibodies and large polysaccharides like starch are too large and are not able to cross the blood-brain barrier. Whereas urea does not have specialized proteins and therefore they cannot enter the brain.

Hence the correct option is (c).

The more nutrient-enriched a lake is, typically the more algae in the lake.

Eagle, fox and coyote feed on the rabbit so if the population of rabbit decreases, then there will be scarcity of food for these animals and as a result decrease occur in their populations so we can say that adverse effect occurs on the population of eagle, fox and coyote.
