Evaluate the effectiveness of marine protected areas (MPAs) in conserving coral reef ecosystems.

Model answer

What a good answer should say

  • Marine protected areas can be effective in conserving coral reefs by limiting human activities such as fishing and tourism.
  • However, their success often depends on enforcement, community involvement, and the scale of the protected area.

Explanation

Why this works

While MPAs can help restore fish populations and protect biodiversity, they may not fully mitigate the impacts of climate change and ocean acidification.
