Because though there is a lot of available water, an ever shrinking 3% is freshwater, which comes from groundwater and streams. The ocean is salinated and in order for it to be fit to be used by humans for domestic needs or for drinking, it needs to undergo a huge desalination process which costs lots of money and time.

Do you think that all pollen germinates indiscriminately on all stigmas?
r-ruslan [8.4K]
Pollen tube growth is one of the most fascinating—and essential—phenomena in the life cycle of flowering plants. After a compatible interaction between pollen grains and the stigma surface, the pollen germinates and forms the pollen tube, which grows through the stigma, style, and transmitting tract to deliver the sperm cells to the ovule." 
2) Although pollens of many species germinate in simple aqueous media, stigmas do not provide satisfactory sites for the germination of most foreign pollen... Stigmas not only provide the proper conditions for the germination of pollen from their particular species, they actively inhibit the germination of pollen of many unrelated species.

Why are reefs important to the shoreline?
balu736 [363]

The coral reef structure buffers shorelines against waves, storms, and floods, helping to prevent loss of life, property damage, and erosion. When reefs are damaged or destroyed, the absence of this natural barrier can increase the damage to coastal communities from normal wave action and violent storms.

hope this helps ^ ^
