Reefs at Risk Revisited (RRR), cited six primary stressors leading to the majority of decline in coral reefs: overfishing and destructive fishing, watershed-based pollution, marine-based pollution and damage, coastal development, thermal stress, and ocean acidification [3]. This report consolidated ...
Why would a sea star that lives in the ocean (3.5% salt) not survive long if you took it home and put it in a bathtub filled with tap water (0.0% salt)? Why is it dangerous for a saltwater fish to be put in a freshwater tank? Explain using the concept hyper-tonic or hyp...

It can live in both salt and freshwater, and the bull has been spotted in water so shallow that humans can walk around in it. What's more, bull sharks are fairly territorial about their homes, so a person out for a simple stroll could be agitating bull sharks without even knowing it....
27% of coral reefs have already been and 70% of Earth's coral reefs will cease to exist within the next forty years. The world has lost half of its coastal wetlands, including mangrove swamps and salt marshes. In the next 30 years, as many as one-fifth of all species alive today ...
Describe conditions necessary for coral reefs to develop and why these conditions are necessary. Explain how the freshwater and ocean ecosystems interact. Compared to water, using air to breathe has two big advantages. What are they? What are some benefits of composting? What are the strengths ...
The ubiquitous gut microbiotas acquired from the environment contribute to host health. The gut microbiotas of soil invertebrates are gradually assembled from the microecological region of the soil ecosystem which they inhabit, but little is known about
Coral polyps are tiny animals. They live in warm salt water. Millions of them build islands. They also build ridges called reefs.The polyps deposit limestone. It remains when the polyps die. Younger polyps fasten themselve
In addition, sea turtles evolved from freshwater turtles (Pritchard, 1997). Thus, even though these giant reptiles have successfully invaded the ocean, they must still return to their natal beaches to nest (called "natal homing"; Carr, 1967). Therefore, migrations play substantial roles in the...
accurate. Swamps consist of stagnant, non-moving water and as I mentioned, the Everglades is a slow moving river, which is referred to as a “Freshwater Marsh”. Although this area looks boringly flat to the naked eye, a drop of 14 feet over that 100 plus miles helps the water along....
