Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Discusses conservationists' actions to protect sea turtles, not how migration helps ocean habitats. Eliminate.
• Option B: Describes sea turtles' ability to return to their hatching beach, which is about their migration behavior but not its role in ocean habitat health. Eliminate.
• Option C: States that sea turtles help sustain marine life balance by traveling (migrating) and eating in different ocean parts. This directly supports the conclusion that sea turtle migration keeps ocean habitats healthy.
• Option D: Lists threats to sea turtles, not how their migration benefits habitats. Eliminate.

Answer:

C. "Sea turtles help sustain the balance of marine life by traveling and eating food in different parts of the ocean."
