What is coral?
Coral is a limestone formation formed
by tiny animals called coral polyps.
Immovable as it is, coral is an animal stuck in its ways.
A tube-shaped body
At one end is a mouth
surrounded by tiny tentacles
The other end
attaches to its neighbor.
What makes it colorful?
• Most corals are not naturally colored.
The color is provided by tiny algae
lodging within the polyp’s own body.
What is the living condition?
• Clean, shallow, warm water where
there is a lot of water movement,
plenty of light.
Where are coral reefs located?
What causes coral bleaching?
Dead coral
• The algae lodging within
coral need to photosynthesize
to survive.
• Once the quality of the water
or temperature suddenly
changes, the algae are forced
to leave.
• It bleaches the coral and kills
it in turn.
What can coral benefit us?
• Coral provides a habitat for many other
forms of life.
• In addition, the economic, tourism, fishing
and recreational resources of tropical areas
around the world depend upon healthy coral
reef ecosystems.
• Coral could save our lives: Scientists have
synthesized the anti-cancer coral compound
in the lab.
