Answer:

A. Sunlight

Step-by-step explanation:

Plants can get shelter by hiding under rocks, they can get food as well. They also can get oxygen just like coral and other plants, but the one thing they aren't receiving is sunlight. This is due to the sunlight not hitting the depths of the ocean as much as the shallow ends.
