Based on the results of the simulation, coral
populations will be stable at the 10-30° latitude
range because the
A
mildly acidic water is necessary for the
coral to have strong exoskeletons.
® low light levels are necessary for the
corals to carry out cellular respiration.
© cool water temperature is necessary for
the survival of zooxanthellae and coral.
high light levels are necessary for the
zooxanthellae to carry out photosynthesis.
