    The correct option is D.

    The removal of water from the dam will reduce the amount of oxygen that can be dissolved in the water. The plants and the animals that live in the marsh need the oxygen gas to survive, thus the reduction in oxygen content of the water will have negative effects on the plants and the animals that live in the marsh.
