Ocean acidification is caused by the absorption of carbon dioxide, which causes a decrease in the rate at which temperatures rise. What is a negative impact of this acidification process though?

Shellfish larvae cannot create shells

Sharks and other fish suffocate from too much carbon dioxide

Whales and dolphins migrate into areas where there is less carbon dioxide.

Turtles spend more time on land instead of being in the ocean.

Which property of water is responsible for water heating up slowly?

high specific heat (high heat capacity)

Which property of water is responsible for water dissolving other polar substances?

high specific heat (high heat capacity)

Which property of water is responsible for water sticking to itself?

What happens to the energy as it travels up trophic levels?

Energy decreases because it is lost as heat and through metabolic reactions.

Energy increases because it is created through metabolic reactions.

Energy stays the same as it travels up trophic levels.

Energy is created at each new trophic level and therefore is not traveling through the levels.
