Explanation:

Coral reefs are situated in humid oceans close to the equator. The major coral reef is the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. The subsequent main coral reef is situated off the shore of Belize, in Central America. Further reefs are situated in Hawaii, the Red Sea, and other areas in humid oceans. Coral ecosystems are a basis of nutrition for millions; shield the shorelines from hurricanes and erosion; offer home, to reproducing and nursery grounds for economically important fish species; provide jobs and income to local economies from fishing, recreation, and tourism; are a source of new medicines etc. Coral reefs begin to form when free-swimming coral larvae attach to submerged rocks or other hard surfaces along the edges of islands or continents. As the corals grow and expand, reefs take on one of three major characteristic structures —fringing, barrier or atoll.

Why do you think people like Ben Saunders explore extreme environments? Do you think you’d like to explore an extreme environmen
adell [148]

One major reason for exploring extreme environments is to find new resources. An example of a resource is the search for a new antibiotic. Extreme environments have rare species endemic to the regions which can offer different insights from the normative environment we are used to.

No, I would not. This is because the risk of death is higher in an extreme environment. Example of these risks are deadly diseases or harsh climate. The body may be unable to adjust to the extreme environment hence may be unable to restore homoeostasis;  such as in restoring body heat in extremely cold environments hence leading to hypothermia.
