1. salt-wedge estuary 2. moray eel 3. blast fishing is the use of explosives to stun fish, making them easier to catch; it's harmful because it destroys coral reef habitats, which take an extremely long time to regrow

2. Most "red tides" are caused by members of what group of algae?
3. The feeding mechanism of parrotfish is an important contributor to what general process?
