More light allows underwater plants to grow.

Explanation:

Ecosystem consist of biotic and abiotic elements. Biotic refers to all living organisms while abiotic refers to non living elements of the environment. In the above example, light is abiotic factor while plants that are present inside water is biotic element of an ecosystem. Biotic elements always depend on the abiotic factors for survival and development.
