The correct answer is - C. Upwelling causes nutrients, minerals, and tiny organisms to rise.

The upwelling is a process that appears in the water bodies around the globe. This process is essentially representing the rising of the cold waters towards the surface where there's warmer climate, thus warmer water as well.

With the rise of the cold waters towards the surface, all of the things with it rise as well. The cold waters are rich in nutrients and minerals, as well as tiny organisms, such as the phytoplanktons. This is a process that is very important for the existence of the ecosystems in the larger water bodies, as most of things that are the producers in the food chain are coming towards the consumers, so the food chain can exist properly.

Lake effect snow is the result.

Lake effect snow is a heavy and localized snowfall that is traceable to the great lakes. During the winter season, this type of snow results when cold air moves over lake waters that are warm.

Given that the temperature of the lakes are more than that of the cold air that came in contact with the lake, it would cause moisture to go up.

This moisture and high temperature is what combines together for there to be snow.
