Answer:

When sulfurous, sulfuric, and nitric acids in polluted air and rain react with the calcite in marble and limestone, the calcite dissolves. In exposed areas of buildings and statues, we see roughened surfaces, removal of material, and loss of carved details. Stone surface material may be lost all over or only in spots that are more reactive.

Explanation:

You might expect that sheltered areas of stone buildings and monuments would not be affected by acid precipitation. However, sheltered areas on limestone and marble buildings and monuments show blackened crusts that have peeled off in some places, revealing crumbling stone beneath. This black crust is primarily composed of gypsum, a mineral that forms from the reaction between calcite, water, and sulfuric acid. Gypsum is soluble in water; although it can form anywhere on carbonate stone surfaces that are exposed to sulfur dioxide gas (SO2), it is usually washed away. It remains only on protected surfaces that are not directly washed by the rain.

Answer:

Explanation:

The soil is thin and lacks the ability to adequately neutralize the acid in the rain water. As a result, the area is particularly vulnerable and the acid and aluminum can accumulate in the soil, streams, or lakes.

What is one way that fish interact with a coral reef?
Ksivusya [100]

Fishes use the coral reef for shelter during the day as well as food.

<h3>Information related to coral reef</h3>

One way that fish interact with a coral reef is that fish hide within the coral. Coral reefs are an important resource for large-bodied fish in the Caribbean. They use the reef for shelter during the day.

Coral reefs are important ecosystems because coral reefs contain a great diversity of life. The color of coral depends on the type of polyp present. Coral polyps are tiny little animals that can live individually, or in large colonies that comprise a coral reef.

Great Barrier Reef is considered as the largest coral reef on Earth. Coastal land development, silt runoff, water pollution by humans, damage from scuba diving, boating, and fishing are the threats to the health of coral reef.
