Coral Reef Where are the coral reef biomes? Underwater near the coast lines Description Warm Near the shore to allow sunlight to penetrate

Temperature and Nutrients Average temperature 68 - 82°F (20 - 28°C) Dissolved nutrients Oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide

Plants Kelp Algae Phytoplankton Sea grass

Plant Adaptation Live underwater Extract carbon dioxide from water

Animals Tropical fish Sharks Octopus Sea urchins Crabs Lobster Coral Anemones Starfish

Animal Adaptations Live in or take shelter inside coral Live underwater Live in warm water Withstand tides Brightly colored camouflage

Humans and Biodiversity Humans do not live here but we visit Biodiversity rating is a 9

Abiotic Factors Water temperature Dissolved gases Tides

Food Chain Algae Coral Fish Shark

Other Interesting Facts Home to many endangered species because of water pollution The great barrier reef can be seen from space
