The Great Barrier Reef is made of a variety of living and dead soft and hard corals.
Technically, the reef is a coral reef, and is mainly comprised of coral, both of the living and dead variety. However, other main contributing factors to the Great Barrier Reef include common marine plants, and... well... just plain ol' rock.
Great barrier reefs are actually on top of the dead and old reefs and sea anemones. So the non living reefs are the foundations and support for the living reefs.
a barrier formed of dead coral found primarily in warm seas
Most island of the Great Barrier Reef are very little above seal level, thus would be swamped by a rapid rise in sea level brought about by glaciers melting. The same fate awaits the Maldives and many island groups, also countries like Bangladesh.
Really? A "coral reef" is made of "coral."
Coral reefs are living animals. Climate changes has warmed the waters and more sunlight rays have bleached the once colorful reefs. Experienced divers say the odor in the waters is strong-- from the smell of millions of dying or dead corals. This smell lingers on diver's skin and equipment.

Coral reef and trees
There isn't really an organism that is composed of individual organisms. It is possible that the question is referring to a coral reef, which is made of the bodies of dead polyps that live on the reef and detach at night to eat. However, a coral reef is not one organism, but a formation made of billions of small organisms.
