Answer:

Option A, concentrated waste from aquaculture facilities contaminates rivers and oceans.

Explanation:

A major problem which may arise from aquaculture would be contamination of rivers and oceans. Ocean environmental damages may occur if aquaculture is practiced extensively in large scale.

Problems like destruction of aquatic habitats and water eutrophication may occur if not taken proper measures. Also, use of excessive chemicals and pesticides can disrupt the marine life and the coastal eco-system.
