Answer:
The two abiotic conditions in the coral reef that contribute to the high biodiversity are:
- Temperature
- Sunlight
Whilst the abiotic factors are
- Plant and
- Bacteria
Explanation:
The coral reef which covers a space of 115,831 square miles (or 30 million hectares os space) is home to a rich diversity of aquatic life (plants and animals alike). Being the largest coral reef on earth a lot of attention is given to it to ensure that its health and functionality is preserved.
The above factors contribute immensely to the stability and operability of the great reef.
The coral reef abounds with many aquatic animals such as crabs, herbivorous fish, sea turtles, sea urchins etc Many of these feed off microscopic plants such as the phytoplankton (that is tiny plants) and microscopic animals referred to as zooplankton. The zooplankton in turn feed off microscopic plant, bacterioplankton and even other zooplankton.
It is easy to see that at the base of the food chain lies Phytoplankton and bacterioplankton. This group require sunlight to thrive.
The smaller herbivorous fish, crabs, sea turtles and urchins on the other hand, constitute food for larger animals such as sharks, Baracuda etc.
It is also important to note that these microscopic life (plant and animals) require a certain temperature to thrive. If the water body in these eco system were to exceed a certain temperature, it is highly doubtful that they would survive. The death the the plant and animal life at the base of the food chain will completely disrupt the entire biodiversity and may even lead to its extinction.

Answer:
Viruses and bacteria helps to build up our immune system, specifically our adaptive immune response such that we will be able to eliminate such pathogens when our body comes into contact with them. This builds up the resilience of our immune system over time, similar to how vaccines work.

Answer:
Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast of the plant cell. Carbon dioxide, water, and the sun's energy are necessary for the chemical reactions of photosynthesis. The products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen.

that's the answer ♥
B) Density (keyword dense) is used to describe something thicker or more filled with. If you make a ball smaller aka decrease its mass and make it thicker aka volume It would make it a lot denser than before
