10. The Florida Straits reefs are known for each of the following characteristics EXCEPT
- A. giant, plunging reefs.
- B. lobsters and crustaceans.
- C. spur and groove formations.
- D. sharks and other large fish.
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
B
For choice (A), the passage states, "Farther out to sea are giant reefs that plunge into the deep." For choice (C), the passage states, "The relatively shallow part of the Florida Straits (less than six feet deep) take on spur and groove formations—rows and rows of reefs separated by white sand." For choice (D), the passage states, "In addition to fish similar to those in the patch reefs, the giant reefs are also frequented by large "pelagic" fish such as sharks." There is no mention of lobsters and crustaceans in connect with the Florida Straits.
