As you get deeper into the ocean, the temperature of the water starts dropping and so the water gets colder.Cold water always have a higher density than warmer water. In case of the oceans the cold and salty water settles at the bottom due to higher density and the warmer water rises to the surface. Although the temperature of the water rises by negligible amount from contact with the earth's surface, but it is so negligible that it does not warm the water enough. The sunlight on the other hand beats down on the surface water of the ocean to make it a little more warm.

Coral reefs are a very important component of the ocean’s ecosystem because they support sea life, such as crabs and sea turtles. in fact, over four thousand species depend on the survival of the reefs, which are being destroyed by bleaching. more must be done immediately to save the reefs.
development along the coastal regions has significant negative effects on coral reefs. the reefs are an essential part of the ocean’s ecosystem, and when people build structures on top of them, they are easily damaged because they are so fragile.

How does temperature change with depth in Earth's interior
forsale [732]

i hope this helps you

from google:

"The Earth gets hotter as one travels towards the core, known as the geothermal gradient. Geothermal gradient is the amount the Earth's temperature increases with depth, indicating heat flowing from the Earth's warm interior to its surface. On average, the temperature increases by about 25°C for every kilometer of depth"
