1. Provide two examples of why coral reefs are important ecosystems on Earth.
2. Some corals in the warm pools off Ofu Island can withstand temperatures of 32° to 34 °C without bleaching. So, the researchers set up a controlled laboratory experiment to try to determine why these corals survive in such excessive heat. With regard to the experimental design, provide two reasons why Dr. Palumbi devised a standardized test for the corals.
Answer:
It provides shelter and protection.
Explanation:
Coral reefs are very important to our ecosystems on Earth because it provides shelter to a large population of ocean life and also provide protection to coastlines from strong ocean currents and high waves from causing damage. Dr. Palumbi devised a standardized test for the corals in order to find out that why coral reef can withstand temperatures of 32° to 34 °C without bleaching.

Define homeostasis and explain why it is important.
Homeostasis is the ability of an organism or system to maintain a stable internal environment despite changes in the external environment. The term was coined by Walter Bradford Cannon in 1930 and comes from the Greek words "homeo," meaning "similar," and "stasis," meaning "standing still."
Homeostasis applies to the body's physiological processes, such as metabolism, temperature regulation, fluid balance, and hormone secretion. These processes involve a series of feedback mechanisms that sense changes in the body and trigger responses to restore balance. For example, when the body's temperature rises above a certain level, thermoreceptors in the skin and hypothalamus signal the sweat glands to produce sweat and the blood vessels to dilate, which helps to dissipate heat and bring down the temperature.
Homeostasis also applies to psychological processes, such as mood, stress, and arousal. These processes involve the brain's regulatory systems, such as the limbic system, the autonomic nervous system, and the endocrine system. These systems work in tandem to respond to internal and external stimuli, and regulate emotions, instinctual drives, and cognitive processes.
The concept of homeostasis is important in understanding health and disease. When homeostasis is disrupted, the body or mind may experience dysfunction, disease, or pathology. For example, chronic stress can lead to an overactive HPA axis and the release of cortisol, which can suppress the immune system and lead to inflammation and disease. Diabetes is also a condition where the body's homeostasis is disrupted, resulting in high blood glucose levels and impaired glucose metabolism.

What might happen to your local hydrosphere and geosphere if conditions in the atmosphere caused rain for several weeks?
Answer:
the hydrosphere(bodies of water)would cause floods and other natural disasters while the geosphere will become infertile and landscape change (weathering).
Explanation:
In a plant, leaf color and leaf shape are controlled by two linked genes. Leaves of the wild plant are red (R) while a recessive mutation in this gene causes leaves to be white (r). Wild-type leaves are pointed (P), while a recessive mutation in this gene causes them to be smooth (p). For a parent plant that is heterozygous for both traits with both recessive mutations on one chromosome, what genotypes will its gametes be
Answer:
The genotypes of the gametes are:
RP (parental), rp (parental), Rp (recombinant), rP (recombinant)

The unit states that any animal that can be domesticated probably already has been. Explain the logic behind the statement and whether or not you find it convincing.
Answer:
Saying that if an animal can be domesticated that it probably already has been is saying that a lot of things are documented and if it has the capability to be domesticated or brought under human control then someone somewhere probably has. So I would personally find this convincing.
Explanation:
Hope that this helps and if so please mark me the brainliest. Peace and Love

Explanation:
Sponges, members of the phylum Porifera, are sessile filter feeders that lack tissues or organs. Instead, specialized cells have unique functions like ingesting food, support, and reproduction. Such specialization within a sponge body is a result of
A) cytokinesis.
B) cell cleavage.
C) cell differentiation.
D) gamete fertilization
Answer:
C) cell differentiation.
Explanation:
Cell differentiation is a process undergone by a cell in which it changes to a specialized form. During the process of cell differentiation, some genes in a single cell becomes turned off or on in a process called GENE EXPRESSION to give rise to cells with specialized functions.
This is the case of this sponge whose specialized cells perform unique functions like ingesting food, support, and reproduction. The specialization of the cells within the sponge is as a result of the process of CELL DIFFERENTIATION.

Feeling connected to nature has been shown to be beneficial to wellbeing and pro-environmental behaviour. General nature contact and knowledge based activities are often used in an attempt to engage people with nature. However the specific routes to nature connectedness have not been examined systematically.
Explanation:
electrons are the electrons in the outer energy
level of an atom that can participate in interactions with other
atoms.
Check it
Answer:
Valence
Explanation:
In an atom, the electrons at the outermost energy level is called as valence electrons. It is the valence electrons which participates and interacts with the other atoms and form bonds. The valence electrons of an atoms are important as they depict the chemical properties of an element.
Thus the valence electrons resides the outermost shell and surrounds the atomic nucleus.

What is the role of energy in living organisms? Is ti a mor or less important role than other characteristics of life?
Answer:
A huge number of chemical reactions take place continuously in a living cell. The whole of all chemical processes, that is, the total turnover of matter and energy is called metabolism.
Explanation:
All organisms need the energy to grow, reproduce, and respond to their surroundings. All these processes are achieved through metabolism that allows the energy available to them.
