Coral reefs are fragile ecosystems because they are sensitive to changes in water temperature, pollution, and physical damage. When these factors are disrupted, coral reefs become stressed and can have difficulty recovering, leading to a decline in health and biodiversity. Additionally, human activities such as overfishing and coastal development contribute to the fragility of coral reefs.
Coral is considered fauna because it is made up of living animals known as coral polyps. Coral polyps secrete calcium carbonate to build coral reefs, which provide habitats for a diverse range of marine life.
When coral polyps die, their hard outer skeletons remain intact and empty, resulting in the formation of coral reefs. The decomposition of the soft tissues of the coral polyps provides nutrients for new coral growth, contributing to the continuous development of coral reefs.
A beneficial association between coral and algae is an example of symbiosis. In this partnership, the algae (zooxanthellae) live within the coral's tissues and provide the coral with energy through photosynthesis, while the coral offers the algae protection and nutrients. This relationship is vital for the survival of coral reefs.
Coral symbolizes protection, healing, and transformation. It is often associated with emotional balance and inner peace, and is believed to bring good luck and prosperity to the wearer. In some cultures, coral is also seen as a symbol of eternity and immortality.

coral is beautiful and needs to be taken care of as it is dying because of pollution, human contact and fishing. at the rate that coral reefs are being destroyed, 70% will die in our lifetime
it would be the temp in the water
Three signs of global warming in Australia include rising temperatures leading to heatwaves, increased frequency and intensity of bushfires, and coral bleaching affecting the Great Barrier Reef due to warmer ocean temperatures.
In some areas of the world, coral reefs are dying. Pollution, tourism and fishing all pose hazards to what are relatively fragile ecosystems. No doubt there are some isolated coral reefs which are thriving.
