As CO2 builds up in the atmosphere it also accumulates in the oceans, causing acidification. This poses a challenge to marine creatures that rely on calcium carbonate deposition such as corals, mollusks, and even fish, which use it to form otoliths. Researchers investigated whether otolith deposition was impaired at low pH, and were surprised to find that otoliths were actually larger in this condition. This means that, while coping with global climate change, at least fish will still be able to maintain which sense(s)?  

A.  feeling pain B.  vision C.  taste D.  olfaction E.  hearing and balance Clarify Question What is the key concept addressed by the question? What type of thinking is required?
