Need asap marine biology
a deep water island of marine debris is located directly in the migratory path of a pod of humpback whales. how would this affect the carrying capacity of this population of humpback whales?

a. the carrying capacity for the area would be compromised but the whale population will remain stable.

b. the carrying capacity for the area would be compromised and the whale population will suffer.

c. the carrying capacity for the area would be unchanged and the whale population will remain stable.

d. the carrying capacity for the area would be unchanged and the whale population will flourish.

B. The carrying capacity for the area would be compromised and the whale population will suffer.

Explanation:

Carrying capacity of an ecosystem can be define as the number of individuals of the population of a species which an ecosystem can sustain in terms of availability of resources.

In the given situation, as the marine debris is located in the migratory path of humpback whales. As a result of this the whales will not be able to migrate to new location. The carrying capacity of the place where they are living will be compromised due to limitation of resources and whales will have to suffer.
