Ocean acidification is of considerable concern to environmental scientists as it could impact ocean biodiversity significantly. As

can impact species, as the lowered pH can cause weakening of shells made of calcium. Which of these species is not directly impacted

by ocean acidification?

B.) oysters

C.) corals
