Answer is b. Burning fossil fuels causes a decrease in the pH of ocean water making it more acidic.
Burning of fossil fuels release carbon dioxide and other harmful gases in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide gets dissolves in the ocean to form carbonic acid. Due to formation carbonic acid, the pH of ocean water changes slightly. The average pH of ocean water was 8.2 slightly basic. Now it 8.1, it means there is 25 % increase in acidity of ocean water.
Animals absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide in respiration and plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen through photosynthesis.
The reasoning behind this is because these unidentified plants could be used to cure diseases, used for food, and many scientists may even use these plants to create cosmetics. I really hope this helps and I just thought this off the top of my head so its may not be 100% accurate but its the basics of it.
Answer:
B) and D) are the correct answers
Explanation:
Hadalpelagic zone contains life such as amphipods
, snailfishes and cusk-eels.
Epipelagic zone is the ONLY zone where visible light and algae can be found. Lower than that the amount of light is insufficient for plants to carry out photosynthesis.
The mesopelagic zone has a diverse biological community that includes unique organisms adapted to live in a low-light environment including fish like
the blobfish, bristlemouths or the tasselled anglerfish.
