Question

a diver is swimming near the surface of the ocean. what would she most likely observe, in terms of the numbers of photosynthetic organisms and light conditions? (3 points) options: few photosynthetic organisms and very little light; many photosynthetic organisms and very little light; few photosynthetic organisms and large amounts of light; many photosynthetic organisms and large amounts of light 10. (01.02 mc) a marine scientist in california wants to study the habitat of atlantic blue crab, a species of crab found around the chesapeake bay. how can he best study the habitat of these organisms? (3 points) options: collect and analyze water samples from atlantic blue crab habitats within the chesapeake bay; transfer a population of crabs into an aquarium to observe how they behave in the lab; move crabs from the atlantic to the pacific ocean to test if they survive in another environment; breed a new line of atlantic blue crabs that can survive in cooler climates than the chesapeake bay.

Explanation:

First Question (Diver Observing Ocean Surface)

Near the ocean surface, there's ample light, so photosynthetic organisms (like phytoplankton) thrive. So we expect many photosynthetic organisms and large amounts of light.

To study the natural habitat of Atlantic blue crabs, collecting and analyzing water samples from their Chesapeake Bay habitats is the most direct way to observe their natural environment. Moving them or breeding new lines would alter the natural habitat study.

Answer:

Many photosynthetic organisms and large amounts of light (the option with this description)
