The answer is C
if you kill all the sea otters (which is wrong) then there is nothing to kill the sea urchins which then the sea urchin population will increase. Because sea urchins feed on kelp and there are so many of sea urchins, it requires more kelp to be eaten. Last, the kelp population is low because all the sea urchins ate most of the kelp
