How do coral reefs help with climate stability?

Biology

DedPeter [7]2 years ago

The coral reefs help with climate stability because they serve as homes for species that build exoskeletons from carbon.

Carbon in the form of carbon dioxide has been reported to be a major factor in the climate instability of the planet. This is because they are parts of the greenhouse gases that form a blanket layer over the atmosphere and prevent reflected sun rays from escaping back to space.

Thus, greenhouse gases cause the earth's atmosphere to warm up, a phenomenon known as global warming. The warming, in turn, leads to the unpredictability of several climatic factors.

With the majority of the species living in coral reefs helping to make use of carbon dioxide to build their exoskeleton, they are helping to reduce the concentration of the gas in the atmosphere and thereby reducing warming and erratic climatic changes.

What is the minimum pulse ox reading the emt wants to maintain in the patient with spontaneous​ breathing?
Alex73 [517]
I believe it should be 94%.Normal arterial oxygen is approximately 75 to 100 millimeters of mercury. Values under 60 mmHg usually indicate the need for supplemental oxygen. Low blood oxygen is known as hypoxemia. Normal pulse oximeter readings usually range from 95 to 100 percent. Values under 90 percent are considered to be low.

Use the terms "radiation", "conduction", and "convection" to explain how a pot of water boils.
kirill115 [55]
Heya!
So, the radiation from a fire warms the bottom of a pot. Through conduction, the water inside the pot is warmed. Finally, through convection, the hot water rises and less hot water sinks, forming a motion similar to that of a circle.
Hope this helps!
