A)

Answer: 3)  Algae use dissolved oxygen to fuel night-time growth, when sunlight is unavailable for photosynthesis. When dissolved oxygen levels fall beneath certain levels, fish and other aquatic creatures can no longer survive.

Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. – Winston Churchill
