Importance of keystone species and how humans impact there species
Human Impacts
Carbon emissions causes ocean to acidify causing the skeleton of the coral to break down causing habitats for other species to break.
Destructive fishing practices such as bottom trawling. Dragging large, heavy fishing nets along the seafloor.
Importance
Associated with high biodiversity of thickets providing spawning sites for more than 300 species of invertebrates and reef-dwelling fish including different species of groupers and snappers
The influence of economic, social or environmental implications
Evaluate solutions proposed by scientists that could reduce the impact of human acitivities on these species and their ecosystem
