The pH of a solution is a measure of how acidic or basic it is. The greater the pH, the more basic the solution is. Corals and other marine invertebrates require less energy to make their exoskeletons and shells when ocean water is slightly basic. As carbon dioxide concentrations in Earth’s atmosphere rise, ocean water absorbs carbon dioxide and becomes more acidic. This process is called ocean acidification. How do you think ocean acidification will affect the coral reef?

Explanation:

Because coral reefs have limestone (calcium carbonate), the coral reefs will be greatly affected. The increase in hydrogen ions in the ocean will corrode the coral reef, making it inhabitable for species. This will affect the crabs that get their food and the community that lives within in it. Making countless of species to loose their lives and their way if living.

the answer is trees if i'm not mistaken

many other transport proteins, often called pumps, move materials against a concentration gradient. active transport drives molecules across a membrane from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration. this process, shown in figure 5.1, uses transport proteins powered by chemi- cal energy.
