Biology
1 answer:

8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The closed metal container will get distorted or compressed due to a combination of two reasons:

1.<em> contraction of the metal container as a result of a reduction in its temperature.</em>

2. <em>a reduction in the pressure inside the container caused by a sudden drop in the temperature of the water inside it. </em>

The tap water causes a reduction in the temperature of both the container and the water inside it. An increase in temperature causes metal to expand and a reduction in temperature causes it to contract. Also, water takes less space than steam. Therefore, a reduction in the temperature of the hot water causes a reduction in the pressure inside the container relative to the outside. This causes the metal container to be compressed.

There is a type of algae that lives in the cells of corals. These algae process carbon through photosynthesis and pass it on to
kicyunya [14]

Due to global warming, the climatic conditions such as rise in temperature of the coral habitat in the oceans changes. The corals become stressed by changes in conditions. Under these conditions, corals expel the symbiotic algae living in their tissues. This turns corals completely white. This is called coral bleaching. Due to coral bleaching, it becomes more stressed and this can leads to its death. Algae also may not be able to survive alone.
