Solution

Explanation:

  • Divers carry oxygen cylinders with them as the bottom of sea has low levels of oxygen also known as hypoxia.
  • The deficiency of oxygen in bottom waters changes the type of organisms also.
  • They are mostly small and fast growing and can tolerate low concentrations of oxygen.​
  • Therefore, scuba divers need to carry their own oxygen cylinders with them.

Hence, the option (A) is correct.
