Answer to Question 1

The isotopic composition of seawater is primarily affected by the amount of water stored in glacial ice. Increasing the amount of water stored in continental glaciers increases the amount of 16O removed from the oceans, and increases the  18O of the oceans (ocean water becomes isotopically heavy).

Answer to Question 2

D
