Question

which of the following is not a possible consequence of animals ingesting marine debris? a. injury b. starvation c. suffocation d. malnutrition please select the best answer from the choices provided

Explanation:

When animals ingest marine debris, sharp objects can cause injury. Debris can block the digestive - tract leading to starvation as they can't digest it and can't take in proper food. If the debris blocks the airway, suffocation can occur. Malnutrition is not a direct consequence of simply ingesting marine debris. The main issues are physical blockage or injury rather than a lack of nutrients from normal food sources due to the debris itself.

Answer:

D. malnutrition
