Scientists have been studying threats to coral reefs. The percent of reefs affected by various threats are shown in the figure below. A future global temperature increase may affect all categories on the figure. Predict which category would change the most from global temperature increases and propose a testable question that scientists could study.

a. The biggest effect will be on the far right column that includes thermal stress with a greater percentage of reefs falling into the low and medium threat categories. Scientists could test whether reefs that have greater fishing risk also have greater thermal risk.

b. The biggest effect will be on the far right column that includes thermal stress, with a greater percentage of reefs falling into the high and very high threat categories. Scientists could test whether reefs that have greater temperature changes have greater increases in watershed-based pollution.

c. The biggest effect will be on the far left column that includes fishing, with a greater percentage of reefs falling into the high and very high threat categories. Scientists could test whether increased fishing causes increased marine-based pollution.

d. The biggest effect will be on the far left column that includes fishing, with a greater percentage of reefs falling into the low and medium threat categories. Scientists could test whether reefs that have greater temperature changes have greater increases in fishing threats.

Answer:

It's B

Explanation:

Temperature rise will eventually end up putting coral reefs into the high threat categories, not fishing and DEFFINITELY not lowering their "risk" factor.

Coral reefs are the organisms of the aquatic ecosystem. The column includes the thermal stress that will be affected the most as the reefs fall into high and very high threats are huge. Thus, option B is correct.

Due to an increase in pollution and global warming, the oceans have heated up, which results in thermal stress and leads to coral bleaching and threat to the coral reefs.

The percentage of the very highly threatened, highly threatened, slightly threatened, and threatened reefs are seen majorly due to the thermal stress. Thermal stress is in increases amount due to oceanic warm-ups.

The thermal stress due to increased carbon dioxide activities and acidity leads to coral bleaching causes the destruction of the reefs and their endangerment.

Therefore, option B. the far right column labeled thermal stress has the biggest effect on the coral reefs.

The hypothalamus controls excretions from the pituitary gland. It causes the release of some hormones from the pituitary by direct nervous control, and others by secreting releasing and inhibiting factors that stimulate the pituitary to secrete hormones. Which best describes the hypothalamus? It is a connection point between the nervous and endocrine systems. It is both an exocrine and endocrine gland. It is referred to as the “master gland.” It secretes its contents into ducts.
