Which metabolic outcome results when increased ocean acidity inhibits symbiosomes in coral?

💡 Explanation

Reduced symbiosome activity restricts the translocation of glycerol and glucose produced by the zooxanthellae using photosynthesis; this is because the environment impairs metabolic exchange. Therefore less energy moves to coral, rather than increased survivability; the other options involve changes caused on other cellular systems.
