Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct option would be that it can provide a hard surface where organisms can attach and live .

The fossil fuel in the engine of a ship cannot act as food for algae nor fish. It can only be more of a poison to them. Plastics cannot be broken down easily like that unless they are biodegradable plastics. The interior of a shipwreck would ordinarily not release oxygen into the ocean.

The only probable answer is that the shipwreck can provide a hard surface where organisms can attach and live .

Correct option: C
