A. Sea coral would make immediate adaptations through genetic mutations to adjust to the changes in the environment.

B. The ocean water would change its current so that the acidic water is relocated to another area and allow sea coral to survive.

C. The ocean water would change its composition to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide contained and allow sea coral to survive.

D. Sea coral would become extinct because of its inability to make adaptations fast enough to adjust to the changes in the environment
