Great Barrier Reef

Cone snails live in predatory gastropods that inhabit mostly mud, sand flats shallow reef waters where the low and the high tides alternate.

Because of your mom

the great barrier island was built because it was very great and important.... for more information use ur txtbook or google haha :)) im so funny

yes, the great barrier reef is in the southern hemisphere, just off the northeastern coast of Australia

There are many kinds of plankton, and they all look different. There is a link below to the Kikipedia article on plankton. It has a number of pictures.

Royal Commissions disallowed oil drilling in the Great Barrier Reef, in 1975 the Government of Australia created the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park and prohibited various activities.[80] The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park does not include the entire Great Barrier Reef Province.[12] The park is managed, in partnership with the Government of Queensland, through the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority to ensure that it is used in a sustainable manner. A combination of zoning, management plans, permits, education and incentives (such as eco-tourism certification) are employed in the effort to conserve the reef.

Yes it is.

Illegal The Great barrier reef is protected

yes

The Great Barrier - film - was created in 1937.

To . . . .live, hide, and eat.

The Great Barrier Reef, like any natural habitat, faces numerous threats, largely as a result of human impact. Although it does not have an official listing of endangered, it is shrinking, and it is unknown by how much, or whether this is permanent. Climate scientists who subscribe to the theory of anthropogenic global warming (i.e. caused by man's activities) predict that the Great Barrier Reef may lose up to 95% of its coral by the middle of the current century. Although the coastline parallel to the Great Barrier Reef has been settled by Europeans for less than 200 years, these scientists believe that the Reef has been shrinking by 20% every 100 years.

Climate scientists who subscribe to the theory that global warming is cyclical perhaps have a less drastic view, as they believe that the coral will regenerate, as it has apparently done so in the past. There is evidence that the coral goes down much deeper than first thought, and this is an important factor in its regeneration. It is a very emotive topic.

Pollution and chemical runoff pose a very real threat to the reef. The water quality of the reef is affected by sediment and nutrients, and 80% of this is caused by cattle grazing on the land adjacent to the reef. Mud and chemical runoff tend to limit the sunlight that reaches the coral, causing it to die off, and they increase the macro-algae, which is a weed.

Tourism is a threat to the reef, as tourist boats damage the delicate framework of the reef; fishing and pollution left behind by visitors also is a threat.

A natural threat to the Great Barrier Reef is the Crown of Thorns starfish. Outbreaks of this starfish are a constant threat to the animals of the Great Barrier Reef, though in small numbers it poses no threat.

There are about 40 species which live in and around the Great Barrier Reef which are listed as endangered, mostly due to human impact.

there are about 10 whales

in miles its 9206 mi

in kilometres its 14815.62 km

I did not get your questions, but if you are looking out for bunch of different verbal analogy type questions than http://www.edugoog.com has nice set of question with solution and explanation

The Great Barrier Reef is adjacent to the Australian state of Queensland. It runs roughly parallel to the coast for about 2300 km.

Lady Elliott Island is considered to be the southernmost point of the Great Barrier Reef.

no because your taking away animals homes......

Warm

This is difficult to determine.

Although the coastline parallel to the Great Barrier Reef has been settled by Europeans for less then 200 years, climate scientists believe that the Reef has been shrinking by 20% every 100 years.

On the other hand, there is evidence that the Great Barrier Reef undergoes a regular, natural cycle of dying off and regeneration. Researchers have discovered that coral reefs that have died off due to warming sea temperatures in Northern Queensland have regenerated within just twelve years.

you will need :

glue

salt

A4 paper (1 piece)

paint [coral colours]

get the A4 paper and spread the glue over it

then sprinkle the salt on

leave for a 1 minute

splat paint on

leave to dry for 20 or 15 minutes

and you have you very own coral Great Barrier Reef

there are between 5000 and 8000 species of sea snails
