A reef is a ridge of a rock of any type of land that extends some distance just under the surface of the water. A coral reef is a lot of calcium carbonate that is also made up of living creatures. A coral reef is created when a small amount of dead coral turns into calcium carbonate. This process is very slow. The famous reefs are the Great barrier Reef of Austria and Belize and Cayman Islands.
Wave actions are usually not a problem due to hard coral reefs. The reef reduces a wave energy. But sometimes waves can break off or flatten large portions of coral reefs, forming grooves in once circular reef. The higher areas between the grooves are known as buttresses and may grow together at the top producing arches. 
Answer:  Landform that develops on coral reefs as a result of wave action are Arches.

puteri [66]

It would happen that the effectiveness of an original vaccine could become less if there was a mutation in the virus that caused the protein spike to change because the antibodies created would not be specific for the new virus.

<h3>What would happen to the mutated virus?</h3>

Vaccines trigger an immune response to fight disease-causing organisms, a mutation in the virus to be fought would change the effectiveness of this immune response, as the specificity would not be the same with the mutant virus.

With this information, we can conclude that The immune response would not be specific for the new virus that caused the protein spike to change.

Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and certain bacteria to convert energy from sunlight and turn it into chemical energy in the form of glucose which is used a s a source of energy by many organisms.

The balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis is written as :
