Final answer:

Ocean acidification is the process of the ocean becoming more acidic due to excess carbon dioxide absorption from the atmosphere, affecting marine life and ecosystems.


Explanation:

Ocean acidification is the process in which the ocean's pH decreases due to the absorption of excess carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the atmosphere. This leads to the ocean becoming more acidic, affecting marine species and ecosystems. As a result of ocean acidification, the availability of calcium carbonate decreases, impacting the ability of marine organisms to build shells and skeletons.
