Read the excerpt from "save the coral reefs.” nowadays, the widespread bleaching caused by global warming and pollution occurs in more areas than ever before and irreparably damages the coral. coral receives most of its oxygen and food from the algae that live in and on the reefs. when the coral becomes stressed by the overheating of the ocean caused by global warming, the algae detach from the reefs, and the reefs lose their main source of sustenance. using context clues as a guide, what is the meaning of "irreparably”?

it means it was ruined in a way where it's impossible to repair.

the literal definition is "in a way that is impossible to rectify or repair"

hope this helps

multiple settings

< > reasoning \ evidence < >

novels have multiple settings. a setting is a place or surrounding when a main event or event takes place. not everything happens in just one scene or setting. yes, there can be one *main* setting, but there is definitely not just one. b is incorrect. novels do not have limited characters. there are many characters in a novel, depending on how many the writer wishes to add in. c is incorrect. there is not just a single theme. there are many themes. another word for "theme" is the subject. there can be many subjects and topics. once again, there are many, depending on however many the author wishes to add or include. d is incorrect. yes, novels *can* have no solutions, based on what the author would like. but typically, novels have a solution. the solution might be in "book 5", but there is normally still a solution.
