🌎 Coral reefs are built on the partnership between coral polyps and microscopic algae called zooxanthellae. The algae live inside the coral and provide energy using photosynthesis, while corals give them shelter and nutrients. This symbiosis is vital—corals eject algae during stress, causing coral bleaching. ✨ #animals⚡#cooperation⚡#reefs 👉subscribe Interesting Planet 👉more Channels ​

🌎 Coral reefs provide another remarkable natural record of Earth’s past. As corals grow, they form bands in their skeletons that reflect seasonal changes in water temperature, chemistry, and even extreme weather events. Some coral cores reveal ocean conditions dating back several centuries. ✨ #coral⚡#reefs⚡#paleoclimate⚡#oceanography 👉subscribe Interesting Planet 👉more Channels ​
