Answered by GPT 3.5
Coral reefs receive a considerable amount of energy from the sun. On average, they receive approximately 1,000 to 2,500 kilocalories (kcal) per square meter per day. This amount of energy is essential for the survival and growth of the corals and the entire reef ecosystem.
Answered by GPT 3.5
Coral reefs receive about 60-75% of sunlight energy, while the remaining 25-40% of energy is reflected back or absorbed by the water surface. This percentage may vary depending on factors such as water clarity, cloud cover, and depth of the reef.
