We may face many problems without the presence of coral reefs. These are-
1)Less Fish in the Ocean-Coral reefs are said as “the rainforests of the sea” and give a quarter of marine species with habitat and food. If coral reefs vanished, essential food, shelter, and spawning grounds for fish and other marine organisms would cease to exist, and biodiversity would greatly suffer. Marine food webs would be altered, and many economically important species would vanish.
2) No More Tourists -Coral reefs also sustain smaller economies through tourism and attract tourists to over 100 countries. Without reefs to visit, there will be a reduction in tourist numbers, which will have a knock-on effect on local businesses that depend on year-round tourists.
3)Losing Our Coastlines -The most important impact that would occur if coral reefs were to vanish, is the negative impact on coastlines. Shorelines will become battered by waves and extreme weather events, and become unsafe to erosion. Erosion of the coastline, combined with sea-level rise due to climate change, will push coastal communities from their homes and further inland.

Due to its location, Hawaii does not have very many land birds. The Hawaiian honeycreepers are a favorite for many ornithologists. There are over 50 species of honeycreepers that can all be traced back to one ancestor. The level of diversity in an ecosystem can be determined by the frequency of speciation and extinction.
Describe speciation and identify two possible prezygotic barriers of the Hawaiian honeycreepers that contribute to speciation.
If the Hawaiian honeycreepers became extinct, explain how the newly available niches could lead to speciation.
Answer:
In speciation, organisms evolved with the passage of time.
Explanation:
Speciation is the evolutionary process in which populations of species evolve with the passage of time to become different species from the original one. Temporal isolation and gametic isolation are two possible prezygotic barriers of the Hawaiian honeycreepers that contribute to occur speciation. The newly available niches could lead to speciation of that organisms that tolerate the Hawaiian climatic conditions when the extinction of Hawaiian honeycreepers occurs. The new organisms used the available resources such as food and space etc and increase its population.
When it is summer in the U.S, why is it winter in South America?
Answer:
the suns on the other side of the earth at the time
Explanation:
hope it helps :)
Answer:
The Earth is tilted at an angle of about 23 degrees, which means that depending on where Earth is on its orbit, one pole will be getting more hours of light (summer) and one will be dark (winter).
Explanation:
Also, the earth is tilted on it's axis so more direct rays of sunlight hit the southern hemisphere making it summer in that hemisphere while it is winter in the northern hemisphere. Six months later, this reverses, and more direct rays hit the northern hemisphere. That's why it's summer here while it's winter there.
The earth's distance from the sun has nothing to do with it. It's all about the axial tilt.
Hope this helps!!

What type of organism really spread and diversified during the Cenozoic?
reptiles
fish
amphibians
mammals
Mammals really spread and diversified during the Cenozoic era. So, the correct option is D.
What was Cenozoic era?The Cenozoic Era is defined as the third of the major eras in Earth's history that began about 66 million years ago and extends to the present. This epoch was the interval of time during which the continents assumed their modern configurations and geographic positions during which the Earth's flora and fauna evolved towards the present.
The Cenozoic Era is called the "Age of the Mammals", while the typical landscapes of North America began to develop during the Cenozoic. Birds and mammals rose to prominence after the extinction of giant reptiles.
Thus, Mammals really spread and diversified during the Cenozoic era. So, the correct option is D.

Why would you expect to find a great deal of
parenchyma tissue in the roots of plants such as the

Answer:
Parenchyma tissue makes and stores food. Because the roots of carrots, beets, and radishes store food for plant, one would expect to find large amounts of parenchyma tissue in these parts.

DNA is copied during the S Phase of Interphase. Why do cells copy the DNA?
Answer:
During mitosis, a eukaryotic cell undergoes a carefully coordinated nuclear division that results in the formation of two genetically identical daughter cells. Then, at a critical point during interphase (called the S phase), the cell duplicates its chromosomes and ensures its systems are ready for cell division.
