A student researching coral reef ecosystems took the following notes:

  • Coral reefs cover less than 1% of the ocean floor but support approximately 25% of all marine species.
  • Rising ocean temperatures cause coral bleaching, a stress response in which corals expel the algae that provide up to 90% of their energy.
  • A 2°C increase in average ocean temperature could eliminate more than 99% of the world's coral reefs.
  • Coral reefs provide coastal protection worth an estimated $9 billion annually by reducing wave energy before it reaches shorelines.

Soru 1

Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to emphasise the disproportionate ecological importance of coral reefs relative to their size?
