two factors that determine range are,
in constant flux as abiotic and biotic
factors change overtime Abiotic factors - temperature, rainfall, the presence
of geographical structures like mountains and oceans, and large scale ongoing
and historical process such as continental drift Biotic factors - past and
current presence of other species that provide habitat, food, or competition Ranges
are dynamic
Simple answer:
When corals are stressed by changes in conditions such as temperature, light, or nutrients, they expel the symbiotic algae living in their tissues, causing them to turn completely white. Warmer water temperatures can result in coral bleaching. ... This is called coral bleaching. When a coral bleaches, it is not dead.
More in depth explanation:
Exposure to higher (100 and 1000 µg l-1) diuron concentrations for 96 h caused a reduction in ΔF/Fm¹, the ratio variable to maximal fluorescence (Fv/Fm), a significant loss of symbiotic dinoflagellates and pronounced tissue retraction, causing the corals to pale or bleach.
Hope this helped :)
