Answer:

Yes I think it is beneficial to know whether you carry a mutated gene or not because that affects future offspring and generations. Realizing this can help stop further reoccurence. Overall there are very few negative effects, very rarely does a person get a genetic disorder because of some mutations, in order for that to happen you have to change the protein of the gene but in most cases that is not what happens.

Why are reefs important to the shoreline?
balu736 [363]

The coral reef structure buffers shorelines against waves, storms, and floods, helping to prevent loss of life, property damage, and erosion. When reefs are damaged or destroyed, the absence of this natural barrier can increase the damage to coastal communities from normal wave action and violent storms.
