A new chemical compound has been developed to interfere with the later stages of embryonic development in certain sea creatures. The inventors hope it will help control jellyfish populations. However, this approach is unlikely to succeed because __________.
A) Jellyfish release sperm and eggs into open water for fertilization, so targeting later stages may be irrelevant.
B) Groups using the compound will likely aim to restore balance in damaged ecosystems.
C) The layering of liquids in water is determined by their relative densities.
D) Early jellyfish larvae (planula) can swim freely for several days before settling on the sea floor.
E) After fertilization, jellyfish larvae attach to the sea floor as polyps, which later release new jellyfish.

Although I get it why E might be the answer. I feel this isn't a good question since E is the option that is least eliminable.
