Answer:

E) reduce the number of primary producers

Explanation:

The primary producers are the ones that are the basis of any ecosystem on the planet. They have the ability to produce food for themselves, thus they are autotrophs, and they are the ones that are the food source for the primary consumers. With reduction of the primary producers the whole ecosystem will instantly feel the effects. The primary consumers will be left without food, meaning that they will start to die out. The dying out of the primary consumers will lead to dying out of the secondary consumers, and their dying out will result in the dying out of the predators, or rather the tertiary consumers. The end result will be a collapse of the ecosystem, which will then be inhabited by other organisms, first through the primary succession, and then through the secondary succession, resulting in a new and different ecosystem.

Since our bodies are made up of 70 percent water, we need water to keep us from dehydrating, food is important because it has the nutrients and proteins that our bodies need to repair, grow, and  keep healthy, and oxygen is also important because it gets carried throughout our blood stream and oxygenates our muscles, without any of these, we would die within a few weeks

svet-max [94.6K]

Cell membranes serve as barriers and gatekeepers. They are semi-permeable, which means that some molecules can diffuse across the lipid bilayer but others cannot. Small hydrophobic molecules and gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide cross membranes rapidly.

Murrr4er [49]

The correct answer is the spray zone.  

The upper littoral, also known as the spray zone, or the splash zone. This region is dry for the majority of the time, however, gets sprayed with salt water at the time of high tides. It is only flooded at the time of extreme high tides and storms. The species in this scarce habitat comprise isopods, barnacles, limpets, lichens, lice, whelks, and periwinkles.
