no. a coral reef is a colony of many smaller coral polyps. corals are their own type of animal, not sponges.
coral is actually little tinny animals clumped together to make one. Coral reefs are many different types of coral that have made a colony together in one spot
A stony coral colony begins as a single free-swimming founder coral polyp that attaches itself to a hard substrate such as submerged rocks. The founder polyp replicates itself repeatedly through asexual reproduction, producing a colony. The colony consists of a base which is attached to the reef substrate, a growing edge zone (where new coral polyps are produced), and an upper surface that is exposed to light that filters down through the water.
A coral polyp is a small, tubular invertebrate animal with a mouth surrounded by tentacles. It is the basic unit of a coral colony and is responsible for secreting calcium carbonate to form the hard coral skeleton that makes up coral reefs. Coral polyps have a mutualistic relationship with zooxanthellae algae that live within their tissues and provide them with energy through photosynthesis.
The anthozoan that fits this description is a coral. Corals are colonial animals that secrete a hard exoskeleton made of calcium carbonate. This exoskeleton provides structure and support for the coral colony.
animal. Coral is a microscopic marine animal that lives together in colonies for protection. The product we call coral is actually the dead skeletons of the coral animal, "glued" together by the colony action. but technically called a marine organisms
A coral reef is a colony of corals. A coral reef can be formed on rock rubble, but old established coral reefs are actually structured out of dead coral. This is one of the reasons it takes so long for a reef to form. Some corals may life for tens or even hundreds of years before they die and allow another coral to grow on top of their skeleton. There are many types of coral reefs, but the real difference is that coral is what makes up a coral reef.
