Snapper overfishing

Explanation:

Coral reefs are becoming highly vulnerable due to increased anthropological exploitation of the ocean reserves. Overfishing, usage of non-selective fishing gears, fishing the spawning areas, fishing using nets etc all affect the coral reefs and the marine ecosystem. The coral reefs and the fish population are interdependent and overfishing greatly impacts both the factors.

Overfishing is the main reason for damage and decline in coral reefs. The snappers are carnivores and survive on eating other fishes which can be herbivores or omnivores. Snappers remain at the top of the food pyramid of the marine ecosystem. A reduction at the top level of the food pyramid will automatically disturb the lower level population and the energy flow between each cycle. A reduction in carnivores leads to increase in herbivores which in turn deplete the coral reefs.  Coral reef is a habitat for many fish populations, and a reduction in the habitat will again reduce the overall population of fishes. A decrease in predator population will increase prey population.

What happens to the Atoms when water turns ice
yulyashka [42]

Molecules are moving because they have energy. As the liquid cools down, the amount of energy is reduced and the molecules start to move slower. When the water temperature reaches around 0°C, the molecules stick together and form a solid – ice. Even in this solid stage, the molecules are still moving – we just can’t see it.

What type of reactions creates bonds between monomers? What type of bond breaks bonds between monomers?
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer: dehydration synthesis reactions and hydrolysis.

Explanation:  

<em>Large biological molecules often assemble via dehydration synthesis reactions, in which one monomer forms a covalent bond to another monomer, releasing a water molecule in the process. </em>

<em />

<em>The process of splitting the bond between monomers is called hydrolysis.  Since a water molecule was lost during dehydration synthesis, hydrolysis brings the water back.</em>
