Which of these is a result of ocean acidification? a. seawater becomes much saltier b. coral reefs increases in size across the ocean c. the exoskeletons of sea creature becomes weaker d. the ocean absorbs carbon dioxide

The correct answer is option C- The exoskeletons of sea creature becomes weaker

When sea water absorbs carbon dioxide, a chemical reaction occurs in water which:

-Reduce the seawater PH

-Carbonate ion concentration

-Saturation states of biologically important calcium carbonate

This chemical reaction is called Ocean Acidification. It is causing many parts of the ocean to become under saturated which is affecting some organisms to produce and maintain their shells.
