As sediment increases, reproductive success in corals increases. As sediment increases, reproductive success in corals declines. There is no correlation between sediment and reproductive success in corals.

Answer 1

As sediment increases, reproductive success in corals declines.

Step-by-step explanation:

• As species are shifting, biodiversity is declining and ecosystems are losing,
• Marine heatwaves are causing coral reefs to bleach and mass die-offs of fish and other wildlife,
• Swamps can retain sediments and can grow vertically at rates equal to where trees are grown around crops to increase biodiversity.
