Chemicals extracted from certain sponges have been used in the treatment of cancer patients. Which of the following could be considered a negative impact on the ocean environment from this type of biotechnology?
In the process of extracting the chemicals needed for the medicine, sponges will release toxins which harm the environment.
Humans may kill too many sponges, impacting the ocean environment in order to extract more of the chemicals.
Sponges provide habitats for other marine organisms, so killing them could harm the environment.
Sponges regenerate, so extracting these chemicals could cause the sponges to overpopulate and have a negative impact on the marine environment.
