(01.03 MC) During coastal upwelling, nutrient-rich water rises from the ocean floor to the surface to replace water that has been blown away or moved by currents. How would this most likely change the abiotic components of the ecosystem near the surface where the upwelling is taking place? (3 points)

(01.01 MC) A scientist is investigating the effects of salinity on fish development in the Atlantic Ocean. He places fertilized fish eggs in an aquarium that contains lower salinity than typical Atlantic Ocean water. He observes that the fertilized eggs fail to develop. He concludes that fish eggs do not develop in conditions with low salinity. Why is this an invalid conclusion? (3 points)
