Answer:

(D) The population of aquatic plants in Location B will decrease because water is contaminated.

Step-by-step explanation:

When people use pesticides it harms the environment cause it goes into the ground and like run-off water it goes back into the ocean contaminating the water causing the animals and plants to get harmed and die off quicker. Why you may ask, Cause Pesticides use straight up chemicals which hurts us and animals. When people use fertilizers they abuse the soil causing it to become a desertification area after it is desertification-ed people and animals must move in order to survive.
