1.What causes coral bleaching?

1.High water temperatures and water acidity cause coral polyps to expel algae, causing them to turn white in color.
2.High water temperatures and water acidity cause coral polyps to expel algae, causing them to turn white in color.
3.Water acidity and high water temperatures make coral polyps more prone to infection, causing them to turn white in color.
4.Water acidity and high water temperatures make coral polyps more prone to infection, causing them to turn white in color.

Plz help I need the answers by Tuesday

1) high water temperatures and water acidity cause coral polyps to expel algae, causing them to turn white in color

2) acidic carbon dioxide dissolves in water, lowering the water's pH

3) the shift in temperature is happening more quickly

4) to protect itself from the sun

5) the biodiversity of the water
