Ocean Acidification and Coral Reef Ecosystems
Which of the following best describes a primary impact of ocean acidification on coral reef ecosystems and a potential long-term consequence for marine biodiversity?
A
Increased coral growth rates, resulting in temporary biodiversity increase but long-term ecosystem instability
B
Reduced calcification rates in coral skeletons, leading to potential ecosystem collapse and massive biodiversity loss
C
Enhanced symbiotic relationships between corals and zooxanthellae, improving reef resilience
D
Shift in coral species composition, causing minimal impact on overall marine biodiversity
