Question

Table 1 shows the concentration of a chemical at various depths in the ocean. Match
the data from this table with the correct vertical profile in Figure 2.

Profile A matches the data in Table 1 depth (m) 0 chemical concentration (mol kg-1) 0 1000 1500 2000 2.5 2.5 4500 Table 1: Chemical concentration at various ocean depths (A)chemical concentration (umol kg (B) chemical concentration (umol kg) 1000 E 2000 3000 4000 5000 1000 E 2000 3000 400 5000 Figure 2: Vertical profiles of the chemical concentration.

Explanation / Answer

Answer - Profile A matches the data in Table 1

As we can see in the data given in table 1, from the surface of the Ocean the concentraion of chemical increases from the as we go below at certain point . after 1500 meters the chemical concentraion decreases but the rate is less ( it is graduall decreasing)

SO in the Profile A it is evident from the Graph that chemical concentraion is increasing and then decreasing reaching a maxmimun value at depth 1500 meters.
