Question

If the temperature of our oceans continues to rise, what possible long-term effect will this have on marine organisms?
The overall temperature of the oceans will increase as will the distribution of marine life.
The salinity of ocean waters will decrease and thus endanger marine life diversity.
The available oxygen of ocean waters will decrease thus reducing marine life diversity.
The geographic range of phytoplankton will be reduced and thus shrink the base of the marine food chain.

Answer 1

The available oxygen of ocean waters will decrease thus reducing marine life diversity.

Answer 2

wELL THE SOLUBILITY of gases decreases with rise in temperature

Answer 3

but it is still c correct?

Answer 4

YES !

Answer 5

Up until the 1960s, the United States government was still paying bounties for killing predators such as wolves. Consequently, many of these large predators are currently endangered and their prey populations, such as deer, have grown considerably. Most states now have deer hunting seasons designed to reduce the size of the deer herd before it gets so large that deer starve to death during winters with little food. Humans are now filling the role of predator that was once filled by wolves and other large predators. How might having humans as predators rather than wolves be expected to affect the deer population?

The deer population would be healthier since killing deer with guns or arrows is much less traumatic for the deer than being hunted by a pack of wolves.
The deer population would be less healthy since humans choose to kill the largest, healthiest individuals when they hunt while wolves choose the weak or sick ones.
The deer population would grow larger each year since humans can set rules about how many deer to remove each hunting season based on how many deer were born.
The deer population would remain at or near carrying capacity since human forest managers could choose to bring food to the deer during hard winters if too few deer were killed during hunting season.
