Please refer to Passage 1 to answer the following question:
Which claim about the kelp carbon pool is best supported by evidence from the information and the model above?
The carbon storage is higher with the otters present because the sea otters eat the sea urchins.
The carbon storage is higher with the sea urchins present because they control the kelp population.
The carbon storage is lower with the otters present because the sea otters eat the kelp.
The carbon storage is lower with the sea urchins present because they carry out autotrophic nutrition.

Please refer to Passage 3 to answer the following question:
As atmospheric CO₂ levels increase, more CO₂ dissolves in ocean water and forms carbonic acid (H₂CO₃).
Explain how this process affects the availability of carbonate ions (CO₃²⁻) in seawater and describe the resulting impact on the ability of sea urchins to form calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) shells.
