The black band disease is caused by the tissue degrading action of cyanobacteria on the skeleton of the corals. Cyanobacteria thrive in places that are rich in nutrients. Hence the coral reef B will be the most affected one, as the water there will have a nutrients from the farm run-offs, that will help the cyanobacteria thrive in large numbers to deteriorate the condition of the exposed star corals. Reef A will comparatively less affected to reef B as the water is clean and is not contaminated by any run-offs to increase the water nutrient content.

You feed a canned dog food that is 75% moisture. When analyzed, it contained 30% crude protein and 1.20% calcium on a dry matter
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
To solve the problem, let us note that the calcium percentage no longer considers the moisture content of the canned dog food. Taking the 75% of the sample 681 grams results in a moisture content of 510.75. This is "removed" from consideration and we're left with 170.25 grams which we multiply with the given (dry basis) percentage of calcium to get 2.043 grams of Calcium.
