Answer:

C.) Plastics accumulate in the food chain

Explanation:

Gyre refers to the circular rotation of water in an ocean that is regulated by wind. It leads to formation of heap of marine debris which mostly consists of the discarded plastic bottles or plastic bags. These plastic objects are mistaken by many marine animals as their food and feed on it. For example: sea turtles feed on these plastic objects of debris by mistaking them as jellies. So, gyres lead to entry and accumulation of plastic in food chain.
