Passage
Coral reefs are one of the most fragile, biologically complex, and diverse marine ecosystems on earth , this ecosystem is one of the fascinating paradoxes of the biosphere: how do clear , and thus nutrient poor , waters support such prolific and productive communities ? Part of the answer lies within the tissues of the corals themselves. Symbiotic cells of algae known as zooxanthellae carry out photosynthesis using the metabolic wastes of the corals, thereby producing food for themselves, for their coral hosts, and even for other members of the reef community. This symbiotic process allows organisms in the reef community to use sparse nutrient resources efficiently. Unfortunately for coral reefs, however, a variety of human activities are causing worldwide degradation of shallow marine habitats by adding nutrients to the water .agriculture, slash-and-burn land clearing, sewage disposal, and manufacturing that creates waste by products all increase nutrient loads in these waters. Typical symptoms of reef decline are destabilized herbivore populations and an increasing abundance of algae and filter-feeding animals. Declines in reef communities are consistent with observations that nutrient input is increasing in direct proportion of growing human populations, thereby threatening reef communities sensitive to subtle changes in nutrient input to their waters. Question1 -5 refer to the passage above . 1. The passage is primarily concerned with (a) describing the effects of human activities on algae in coral reefs (b) explaining how human activities are posing a threat to coral reef communities (c) discussing the process by which coral reefs deteriorate in nutrient poor watkers (d) explaining how coral reefs produce food for themsel (e) describing the abundance of algae and filter-feeding animals in coral reef areas
