John is completing an internship in biology at the clearwater marine aquarium. while interning there, he monitors an outdoor phytoplankton exhibit to observe how populations of phytoplankton change when exposed to light. it is observed that each year the phytoplankton population within the exhibit increased by 3,000 organisms when it was exposed to high amounts of sunlight. a new high rise apartment complex that overlooks the beach is being built. the new apartment complex will stand between the marine aquarium and the sun. the phytoplankton that were receiving 8-12 hours of sunlight each day will now have between 2-5 hours of sunlight. which of the following statements is most likely to occur as a result of the new apartment complex?
a. the population will decline over time
b. the population will decrease their need for food
c. the population will migrate to another body of water
d. the population will choose to evolve new adaptations

A. The population will decline over time

Explanation:

It is unlikely that the population will decrease their need for food, although this might be a plausible explanation over time as organisms evolve although this is very rare and if this so, will happen many years later after an initial decrease in population. This explanation applies for D although D is incorrect in stating that evolution is a choice. It is unlikely for Option C as the organisms are in an aquarium.

"-the movement of carbon from the nonliving environment into living things and back to the environment

-carbon is the essential component of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (which make up all organisms)

-carbon exists in air, water, and living organisms

-producers convert carbon dioxide in the atmosphere into carbohydrates during photosynthesis

-bacteria in the atmosphere cycles through the system in filtration units

-in cellular respiration, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide

-some carbon is stored in limestone (forming one of the largest "carbon sinks" on earth)

-largest carbon reservoir on earth= limestone

-carbon stored in the bodies of organisms as fat, oils, or other molecules may be released into the soil or air when the organism dies

-this may form deposits of coal, oil, or natural gas (fossil fuels, which increased the atmospheric carbon dioxide)

-fossil fuels store carbon left over from bodies of organisms that died millions of years ago

-they are located in the surface of earth, deep within the earth and beneath the ocean floor."
