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

Small pieces of rock often break down further through: weathering folding irrigation volcanoes

anzhelika [568]

The correct answer is - weathering.

The weathering is the process that manages to break down the rocks into very small particles. It can come in multiple different ways, like through the influence of mechanical or chemical ways, but the end result is always the same, the rocks are losing small particles little by little, and over time there's nothing left from them. The weathering is a process that has the tendency to flatten the landscape, so it manages to create a balance between the rising up of the landscape, with its flattening.
