the manatees eat the algae instead of the sea grass
humans are picking the sea grass
Algae blooms are dense layers of algae that cover the surface of water. Sea grass, as a photosynthetic organism, requires sunlight to produce energy and survive. When algae blooms occur, they block sunlight from reaching the sea grass below, preventing photosynthesis and causing the sea grass to die. The other options do not describe a direct link between algae blooms and sea grass death.
