In Marcus’s analysis of Principal Davis’s speech, what evidence supports her counterargument?

Maya analyzed the article "Protecting Coral Reefs" by James Martinez. Martinez argues coral reefs need protection. Maya wrote that Martinez gives three reasons: reefs are ecologically important, economically valuable, and threatened. For ecological importance, Martinez uses scientific data: "Reefs support 25% of marine species despite covering less than 1% of the ocean floor." For economic value, he uses economic data: "Reef tourism generates $36 billion annually" and "Reefs protect coastlines from storm damage, saving $4 billion yearly." For threats, he uses historical data: "Half of coral reefs have died since 1990 due to warming waters and pollution." Maya explained that Martinez keeps each evidence type connected to the right point. How does Maya show which evidence supports which point?
