Finally, Some Good News About Corals | SciShow News

The video discusses recent findings on corals' ability to produce histidine, which may help them resist bleaching. It also explores genetic factors like HSP genes that contribute to coral stress tolerance. Additionally, the video covers how moths use their fur for acoustic camouflage against bats, potentially inspiring new sound-dampening materials.

What is the significance of corals being able to produce histidine?

• It helps them grow faster.

• It enables them to live in colder waters.

• It allows them to change color.

• It makes them more resistant to bleaching.

How do corals benefit from their relationship with algae?

• They become more colorful.

• They gain protection from predators.

• They receive oxygen, sugars, and amino acids.

• They can move to different locations.

What role do heat shock proteins play in corals?

• They allow corals to produce more algae.

• They enable corals to grow larger.

• They protect coral cells from damage.

• They help corals change their shape.

What is the primary function of moth fuzziness?

• To help them fly faster.

• To act as acoustic camouflage against bats.

• To attract mates.

• To keep them warm.

How do moths use acoustic camouflage to avoid bats?

• By reflecting sound waves.

• By changing their flight patterns.

• By absorbing sound waves.

• By emitting their own sound waves.

What technique did researchers use to study moth sound reflection?

• Acoustic tomography

• Sonar imaging

• Ultrasound mapping

• Echo analysis

What potential application does the study of moth fuzziness have?

• Designing quieter aircraft

• Improving moth habitats

• Creating sound dampening materials

• Developing new types of clothing
