Answer:

Rising ocean temperatures will influence reef species to move to another area that has cooler areas.

Pollution will create dead zones where there are little to no wildlife. Material pollution like plastic will also kill marine life.

Human interference can affect the ecosystems by polluting, overfishing, and destroying coral.

Explanation:

Some marine life are not suitable to warm temperatures, and this will cause them to move to cooler ones, disrupting the normal balance the ecosystem once had.

Pollution from fertilizer runoff and others can deplete the oxygen in the water, and animals like turtles believe plastic is food and will kill them by destroying internal organs and blocking intestines.

Humans pollute and overfish, and this throws the ecosystems off balance because it will create dead zones and will significantly decrease the amount of wildlife there. Humans also destroy coral, which will make reefs die and destroy habitats for wildlife.
