Answer:    A. Anticonvulsants

Explanation:  Nuropathic pain, or as doctors call it invisible pain, is associated with damage to the nerves, the nervous system. More specifically, it is a damage to the substance that surrounds the nerves, this substance is called myelin.  Neuropathic pain can occur in both the peripheral and central nervous systems, and can be the result of injury that causes damage to myelin or some disease.

Anticonvulsants are used to reduce neuropathic pain, acting as, let's say, calm effect on the nerves, i.e. reducing their sensitivity, which occurs due to damage of mylelin.

WILL GIVE A BRA9NLEST PLZ HELP!!
dezoksy [38]

The answer that will complete the sentence is lack of eutrophication. It is because eutrophication is considered to be important for marine animals as this provides the bodies of water nutrients in which the marine animals need and if they are lacking, the species composition may change, the coral reefs may be destroyed, the oxygen that are dissolved are at low level and what is more serious, dead zones can be formed in which the ecosystem in the marine life may be destroyed or collapse.
