Answer:

The coral population would decrease due to lack of sunlight.

Explanation:

Coral reefs need to receive sunlight, this will not be possible if there is too much cloudiness in the water. The cloudiness would not allow sunlight to reach the corals and this would cause the corals to die and the coral population to decrease in the ocean. Corals need light because zooxanthellae algae use light to produce their food, much like terrestrial plants. Since many of the corals harbor zooxanthellae, we can say that corals live on light. Depending on the species, corals really can live almost exclusively on light (Acropora spp - up to 98% of their nutrition from symbiotic algae).

Which labeled placemark in the layers folder represents the stratosphere?
Leya [2.2K]
The atmosphere is divided into different regions, called layers. The layer closest to the surface is known as troposphere, after which comes the stratosphere. The stratosphere begins at an altitude of 10 miles above the surface of the earth and stretches up to 31 miles above the surface of the earth. It is the second layer of the atmosphere (beginning from the surface of the earth) and it is the region which contains ozone, which plays a vital role in stopping ultraviolet radiation from reaching the earth's surface.
