d. algae overgrowth occurs when too many nutrients are in the water, causing algae to under produce.

Option C

Explanation:

The fertilizers are source of nutrient for the plants but it acts in a harmful way for the environment and nearby water bodies.

The fertilizers then acts as nutrients for the growth of algal bloom, so when the nutrient rich runoff reaches the water bodies algae starts to grow and the growth is so fast that it is results in over growth of algae.

This overgrowth leads to deficiency in water bodies and harms the other aquatic animals.

i think the miocene epoch spans the time from 23 million to 12 million years ago.
