In the movie Finding Nemo, several examples of fungi are depicted in the underwater environment. Some of these include: Brain coral - Although not a true fungus, brain coral is a type of marine invertebrate that resembles a brain and is often referred to as such. Brain coral can be seen in several scenes throughout the movie, including the scene where Nemo and his friends encounter a school of fish in the coral reef. Anemone - Another example of a marine invertebrate, anemones are often associated with coral reefs and are frequently depicted in Finding Nemo. While not true fungi, some species of anemones form symbiotic relationships with certain species of fungi, which help the anemones to break down and digest their food. Rusty Blenny - The Rusty Blenny, which is a type of fish, is often depicted in association with mushrooms in the movie. While not a true fungus, mushrooms are the fruiting bodies of certain types of fungi, and their appearance in the movie suggests a connection between fungi and the underwater environment. While these examples are not all true fungi, they illustrate the diversity of life in the marine environment and the interconnectedness of different organisms in this ecosystem.
If you are reffering to Fungia, a genus of corals, its purpose is the same as all animals, to live, grow, and reproduce.
The daintree rain forest is home to a variety of beautiful and rare insects. For example, the 'Sombe' Frog, which by the way is on the endangered list lives peacefully, however not safely in the Daintree Forest.
No, coral is not a decomposer. Coral is a marine invertebrate that forms colonies and plays a vital role in providing habitats for many other marine organisms. Decomposers are organisms that break down dead organic matter.
Organisms such as coral are cnidarians, and all cnidarians belong to the taxonomic domain of Eukarya, members of which are characterised by having cells with nuclei. Eukarya covers all organisms in the Kingdom Animalia, as well as the Kingdoms Plantae, Fungi and Protista.
