Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Discarded or lost drift nets, also known as ghost nets, entangle and trap not only schooling fishes but also marine mammals, such as dolphins and whales, resulting in their injury or death. In addition, these nets can also harm benthic invertebrates if they get caught in them. Therefore, options A and B are correct, making option E the best choice. Drift nets do not have a direct impact on zooplankton.
