Answer:
Hello, you didn't say what the task is, but I assume we have to choose the option that best describes the composition and the format of the excerpt from Douglas A Segar's <em>Introduction to the Ocean Sciences</em>. If so, I would choose D.
Explanation:
I chose D because the excerpt begins with the argument and continues with the conclusion, that is that "<em>terrestrial organisms are relatively easy to study</em>". Then, the study of terrestrial organisms are compared with the study of ocean life, that is not so easy due to its nature of being present "<em>throughout the depth of the ocean waters, and for several meters, or more, into the sediment.</em>" and it is not as easy to reach as the first one.
