Answer:

A consequence is coral bleaching.

Step-by-step explanation:

The change in ocean temperature is the cause of coral bleaching because it affects the symbiotic relationship between algae and coral. The algae are microscopic algae called zooxanthellae, these algae give the coral´s color, when he temperature increased the algae leave the coral´s tissue, then the coral turns white and dies.
