Answer:

UV radiation, extreme temperatures and low density of gas.

Explanation:

  • The thermometer is a layer of the earth that is directly found over the mesosphere and is has an atmosphere of the UV rays and the photoionization of the molecules that leads to the creation of the ionosphere. Here the temperatures are severed and vary with the solar activity and despite the high temperature it has a low density of the gas.
  • The presence of the Thermospheric storms that occur in the high altitudes is a giant storm and is due to the impulsive form of disturbance, with the respect to the magnetosphere disturbance.

If the earth is 4.6 billion years old, why is the oldest ocean floor only 180 million years old?
borishaifa [10]

the oldest ocean floor is only 180 million years old, because the oldest crust is destroyed at subduction zones.

<h3>What are subduction zones?</h3>

According to NOAA, tectonic plates are fragments of the Earth's hard outer layer that steadily travel across the surface of the globe over millions of years (opens in new tab). (This is a fundamental principle of the theory of plate tectonics, which holds that pieces of the Earth's crust slide across the lower mantle and carry continents with them.) According to the U.S. Geological Survey(opens in new tab), the Earth's crust and the top part of the mantle, a thick, heated layer under the crust, make up that outer layer, also known as the lithosphere (USGS). This lithosphere material curls downward into the heated mantle during subduction zones, when two tectonic plates collide and one slides beneath the other.

How does coral ecosystem suffering from physical damage affect the ecosystem?
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

Aquatic animals and organisms thrive in coral reef habitats/ecosystems. The biodiversity of different organisms (like fish) are abundant because of the habitats (like anemone), algae, and phytoplankton that live off the area. The destruction of the coral reef by polution can cause a disturbance in the balance of life. For example, the bacteria and algae (autotrophs) that live off the sides of pieces of coral would die off causing the fish and other things that way them to die off and then the fish that consume those animals would die off.

In shorter terms: the physical damage would throw off the balance of the food web/food chain and would destroy habitats of thousands of organisms causing them to die off.

Hope this helps! :D
