Warming may slow or halt the formation of cold dense water in polar regions, reducing the delivery of carbon dioxide to depth, and slowing aerobic cellular respiration and productivity in deeper zones.

Warming may slow or halt the formation of cold dense water in polar regions, reducing the delivery of carbon dioxide to depth, and slowing aerobic cellular respiration and productivity in deeper zones. <-- My choice

Warming may slow or halt the formation of cold dense water in polar regions, reducing the delivery of nutrients to depth, and thereby reducing productivity in deeper zones.

Warming may slow or halt the formation of cold dense water in polar regions, reducing the delivery of phytoplankton to depth, and thereby reducing productivity in deeper zones.

Warming may slow or halt the formation of cold dense water in polar regions, reducing the delivery of well oxygenated water to depth, and thereby slowing aerobic cellular respiration and productivity in deeper zones.

This seems like this is an assessment or test. Due to COC on OS, we cannot help you. Sorry......

dndrules1 · Answer

@BlazeRyder it is a study guide

blazeryder · Answer

Okay, sorry about that! I just had that happen to me last night when helping someone on a test and I did not know, so I just want to make sure.

blazeryder · Answer

Give me one second and then I can help you out. I am working with another OS User.

blazeryder · Answer

Alright, I am back. Now give me a minute to look at the question a little more. =)

blazeryder · Answer

I would say your answer is correct. But I am not very strong with Marine Biology I had a couple of units about it in Freshman year. @Dndrules1
