Imagine a marked increase in dissolved carbon dioxide in warm shallow waters, where coral reefs exist. How could the increase in dissolved carbon dioxide MOST LIKELY affect the diversity of this ecosystem?

Question 4 options:

Aquatic plants die because they are unable to carry out photosynthesis under the new conditions.

The increased carbon dioxide causes an increase in dissolved oxygen also and more animals migrate to the area.

These are perfect conditions for coral reefs, which support a vast diversity of living organisms.

Some organisms are unable to withstand the reduced pH levels and die.

Ocean acidification occurs when the carbondioxide gas is dissolved in water that have negative effects on many marine species especially on coral reef which provides habitat and food for many organisms.

So we can conclude that some organisms are unable to withstand the reduced pH levels and die because the carbondioxide in water makes the water acidic.
