Algae are important in the formation of coral reefs.<br> Brown<br> Red<br> Fire<br> Golden-brown
Sliva [168]

Answer:

Red algae

Explanation:

Coral reefs are the structure which are one of the some most important underwater ecosystems of the world. They are characterized by the formation of roof-building corals which are basically the colonies of dead or living polyps(corals) attached together through deposition of calcium carbonate.

Red algae has an important role in the formation of coral reefs  because their thread like structure traps the particles present in the sand of water which ultimately gives the algae a mechanical support for their growth as well as the formation of coral reefs.

Hope it helps!

sladkih [1.3K]
D. Dominant

It is dominant as...
The white coat alleles are recessive, meaning the black coat would most likely be dominant alleles. Assuming the black coated dog had the alleles of BB, and the white coated dog had the alleles ww, there would be a 100% chance that the offspring would have Bw alleles, where the black coat is dominant, "all the offspring were black". 
B = Black, W = White
      B    B
w   Bw  Bw
w   Bw  Bw
The diagram above shows that the offspring would be 100% black coated.

Not sure if you wanted an explanation, but I tried.
