2)height of sun above the horizon
3)cloud cover
4)depth at which P. ianthina lives
5)water clarity

All five factors can affect the survival of the sea slug by influencing the amount of sunlight that reaches the dinoflagellates, which is crucial for photosynthesis. Day length, sun height, cloud cover, depth, and water clarity all play roles in determining the intensity and duration of sunlight available for photosynthesis, directly impacting the dinoflagellates' ability to produce energy and nutrients for the sea slug.
