Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Coral reef ecosystems are sensitive to a variety of threats including pollution, physical breakage, and invasive species. These threats can have significant impacts on the health and resilience of coral reefs. While some coral reef ecosystems may be healthier than others, there is no evidence to suggest that they provide very little ecosystem capital or that they are recovering quickly from damage.
