We have already lost some 80 percent of the coral reefs in the Caribbean over the last three decades, and losses in the Pacific Ocean are also widespread. Reefs are like cities, with some parts growing and some parts being destroyed. When the net growth is positive, reefs can persist. Amazingly, coral reefs are threatened by such atmospheric conditions as A) the growing hole in the ozone.
B) carbon dioxide emissions and global warming.
C) increases in UV radiation and the amount of reflected light.
D) increased particulate matter resulting in decreased UV rays.

Sammi is studying the interaction of the digestive and circulatory systems in the human body. she has listed various processes that occur in each of the systems. put the processes in order to describe the interaction between these two systems. tiles nutrients diffuse through the villi of the small intestine.digestive processes break nutrients down in the mouth, stomach, and small intestine.blood is pumped through the circulatory system to deliver nutrients to other organs.nutrients are ingested at the mouth.nutrients enter the capillaries of the circulatory system. sequence

In eukaryotes, genetic information is passed to the next generation by processes that include mitosis or meiosis. which of the explanations identifies the correct process and supports the claim that heritable information is passed from one generation to another? a. mitosis, followed by cytokinesis, produces daughter cells that are genetically different from the parent cell, thus insuring variation within the population. b. during mitosis, dna replication occurs twice within the cell cycle to insure a full set of chromosomes within each of the daughter cells produced. c. in asexual reproduction, a single individual is the sole parent and passes copies of its genes to its offspring without the fusion of gametes. d. single-celled organisms can fuse their cells, reproducing asexually through mitosis to form new cells that are not identical to the parent cell.
