Answer:

With decrease in pH of ocean water, the survival rate of corals, algae, and fish in coral reef reduces.

Explanation:

Coral reefs find difficulty in living in acidic ocean water. It is so because the coral’s shell that is made up of calcium carbonate is unable to sustain in acidic environment.  

Not only this the skeleton of snails, clams, algae , fish etc is also made up of calcium carbonate. Increased acidity leads to death of these species.  

Thus, the lower is the pH of ocean water, the higher is its acidity and hence the lower is the probability of survival of corals, algae, and fish in the coral reef

1. Why does the Elodea cell have chloroplasts but the onion cell does not, even though both are plant cells? Please answer quick
Oksanka [162]
Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll which is what makes plants green. Onions are not green because they do not contain chloroplasts. The reason they do not have chloroplasts is because in the chloroplast, photosynthesis takes place. A key player in the process of photosynthesis is the sun. The onion itself grows underground which means while they grow they do not come into contact with the sun so chloroplasts in an onion is pointless since they can’t undergo photosynthesis. Hope I helped!

Answer: A. Inner Core

Explanation: The inner core is solid, the outer core is liquid, and the mantle is solid/ plastic. This is due to the relative melting points of the different layers (nickel - iron core, silicate crust and mantle) and the increase in temperature and pressure as depth increases. Hope this helps :) If not, I am sorry :( If it does, Your Welcome!
