<span>D is the correct answer. Coral reefs need sunlight to grow, so they grow best in shallow water (up to 50m deep) as this means sunlight can reach them. They require salt water to grow and warm temperatures of 20 - 32 degrees Celsius.</span>

Zara had a birthday and was able to choose a pet. The pet that she chose was a beautiful clownfish named Bozo, a common salt wat
White raven [17]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>The advice I would give  to Zara would be that she should keep Bozo in a separate tank with common salt water away from the goldfish. Bozo is a salt water fish while the goldfish can only survive in freshwater.</em>

If Bozo is kept in a saltless water/freshwater tank with the goldfish, the water would be hypotonic to Bozo. Consequently, water will osmotically diffuse into the cells of Bozo, the cells would become turgid and lyse, and this would lead to the death of the fish.

If the goldfish is kept in the same salt water tank with Bozo, the salt water would be hypertonic to the goldfish. Consequently, water will osmotically diffuse out of the cells of the goldfish into the surrounding salt water, the cells of the goldfish would become flaccid, and this would lead to the death of the fish.
