The Chesapeake Bay faces many issues that affect the water, animals, and environment. Which issue causes a loss of energy in the food chain due to the lack of growth of bottom-dwellers; like worms and clams?

A.) a catalyst

B.) Bubbling in oxygen

C.) Decreasing the temperature

D.) Adding more hydrogen peroxide

The correct choice here is D)

Explanation:

Addition more hydrogen peroxide into the environment can damage or kill bottom-dweller such as worms and clams.

Let us take a look at the worms.

When worms come in contact with Hydrogen peroxide, experience extensive cellular trauma, including damaging proteins, DNA, and other molecules in their body. This can be very damaging.

Studies also show that worms stop eating both when they taste hydrogen peroxide. If they don't eat, they die off. When this happens the food chain is affected.

the organisms are not adapted to live in some communities or habitats.

1) gene flow

- it is described as the transfer of genes from one population to another population so that frequency of gene is increased.

-a zebra migrates to join a different herd of zebras.

2) natural selection

- a mechanism of evolutionary change in which individuals with advantageous traits survive and reproduce whereas the others ( those that can not adapt) eliminate from the population.

-competition for sunlight leads to taller trees.

3) mutation

- permanent change in the nucleotide sequence of dna ( genetic material) that could have harmful or useful consequences.

-the dna of a snake changes to make its venom stronger.

4) genetic drift - it is a random phenomenon ( that occurs by chance such as fire) that results in change in the gene frequency in a small population.    

-a grassfire randomly sweeps through a population of buffalo and kills most of the animals.
