3 0

Ans. False.

Coral reefs can be defined as underwater ecosystems, characterized by coral (marine invertebrates) skeletons. Coral reefs can survive only in clean and clear water. Pollutants and sediments smother the coral reefs, reduce water quality, and enhance the growth of damaging algae.

Pollution also makes coral reefs to become susceptible for disease, which impede growth and reproduction of corals, and cause damage to coral reefs.

Thus, the given statement is false as coral reefs are affected by pollution.

Which of these is a distinguishing abiotic feature of the Great Barrier Reef
liubo4ka [24]
<em>The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is known as the largest coral reef in the world and the largest living thing on Earth where it houses countless species of sea animals. </em>

Its distinguishing or distinct abiotic feature is its shallow waters.

Sunlight is one of the most important factors in an ecosystem necessary for the organism's survival. The reef mostly has shallow waters so it is easier for the light to penetrate the water for the organisms to use. Even the reefs are visible from the outer space due to its shallow waters.

This type of endocytosis is the cellular process of engulfing liquid particles by the cell membrane.
Natalija [7]

The correct answer is Phagocytosis type of endocytosis is the cellular process of engulfing liquid particles by the cell membrane.

Phagocytosis is a type of endocytosis in which large particles such as microorganisms and dead cells are ingested through large endocytic vesicles known as phagosomes. Phagocytosis is the process of detecting and absorbing particles larger than 0.5 m in size. The particle is internalized into the phagosome, a distinct organelle. This phagosome then undergoes phagosome maturation, which involves changing the structure of its membrane and the composition of its contents. The first step is to activate the phagocyte.

Step 2: Phagocyte Chemotaxis (for wandering macrophages, neutrophils, and eosinophils)...

Step 3: Phagocyte attachment to the Microbe or Cell.

Step 4: The Phagocyte consumes the microbe or cell.
