The answer is D.  There would be a decrease in the population of marine organisms.


Populations are effected not only because of predation but also due to habitat loss caused by the introduction of a new species into the ecosystem. If more sea turtles are added into the region they would deplete the sea grass, causing a decrease in the population of marine organisms due to the loss of breeding grounds and food source.
