Adesalination plant is set up in a bay to provide fresh, drinkable water by removing salt from ocean water and returning the removed salt to the bay. how might the resulting increase in salinity in the bay affect the fish populations? (2 points)

temperatures would decrease making a more suitable environment for fish populations.

the food sources available to the fish populations would increase.

low levels of dissolved oxygen would increase.

fish populations of all the species already living there would increase.

Removing salt from ocean water and returning the removed salt to the bay. The resulting increase in salinity in the bay affect the fish populations because low levels of dissolved oxygen would increase.

Explanation:

Desalination plants work by reverse osmosis, meaning energy is needed to push water past a membrane at high pressure in order to separate the salt (learn more how it works). A typical plant takes an average of 10 to 13 kilowatt hours of energy per every thousand gallons processed.

the reason the two sea urchins don't compete with each other for food, resources, etc. is because the urchins have adapted to the environment but they have also adapted to each other. this is most likely because the genes of the sea urchins.
