Answer: B. red tide

Explanation:

Red tide is a phenomena that is caused by algal bloom specifically due to the growth and abundance of unicellular algae called as dinoflagellates and diatoms. These organisms impart red color to the coastal waters. Such kind of algal blooms release toxins in the water. They deplete the concentration of oxygen in the water body.

The shellfish consume these small unicellular organisms as they filter large amount of water. The shellfish population accumulates large amount of toxins on consumption of these small organisms. The shellfish are harvested and consumed by the human population can make them sick and may lead to mortality of large population.

The allele that expresses itself under heterozygous condition is called the Dominant allele.

The recessive allele can express itself only if they are under homozygous combination i.e. both the alleles on homologous chromosome are recessive.

Here wrinkled pea is a recessive trait and if it is expressed in the phenotype then the genotype of the plant must be homozygous for the recessive allele.
