It has been found that the rainforests are accountable for about one-third, that is, 28 percent of the oxygen of the Earth, however, the majority of the oxygen, that is, about 70 percent in the atmosphere is generated by the marine plants. The left-over two percent of the oxygen comes from other sources.  

The majority of the oxygen comes from the tiny plants in the ocean known as phytoplankton, which lives near the surface of the water and drifts with the currents. Similarly to plants, they perform the process of photosynthesis, that is, they utilize carbon dioxide and sunlight to prepare food, oxygen is the by-product of photosynthesis.  

However, the concentration of the dissolved oxygen, which the water can hold relies on the salinity and temperature of the water. The cold water can withhold more oxygen in comparison to warm water and fresh water can hold more oxygen in comparison to salt water. So, the warmer and saltier the water is, the less will be the oxygen dissolved in it.

Why do you think the snapper population changed the way it did?
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Snapper population is decreasing

Explanation:

The population is decreasing since the human population is increasing dramatically.  As the human population increases, the demand for fish and seafood also increases since humans eat seafood and fish.  As the demand for fish increases, fishermen fish for these snappers more often and in bigger loads.  Snappers cant reproduce faster than these fishermen are hunting for them and so the population decreases
