the coral reefs only grow in the under water and the continents are under water so it can grow and give a good place in the under water.
false only limestone
the coral reefs only grow in the under water and the continents are under water so it can grow and give a good place in the under water.
Limestone that originated as coral can be found on continents where ancient coral reefs were present and have since been uplifted or exposed through geological processes. Examples of such locations include parts of the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern United States and regions of the Alps in Europe.
limestone that began as coral reefs can be found on the continents.
No coral isn’t limestone.
the world was once under water. this gave the coral conditons to grow.

Yes, sandstone that formed from coral reefs can be found on continents through the process of uplift and erosion. Over millions of years, coral reefs were buried, compressed, and cemented into sandstone, which can be exposed through geological processes like tectonic uplift. Examples include the Coconino Sandstone in the southwestern United States, which originated as ancient marine sand dunes.
Limestone. Limestone is a sedimentary rock that forms from the accumulation of calcium carbonate material, often from the shells of marine organisms such as coral. Over time, through compaction and cementation, this accumulated material solidifies into limestone rock.
Limestone deposits that began as coral reefs provide how plate motions have changed Earth's surface. These deposits also provide evidence of past environments.
Yes, sandstone that originated from coral reefs can be found on continents. This type of sandstone forms when coral reefs are buried and compressed over millions of years. As continents shift and change over time, these sandstone deposits can become part of the continental crust.
Coral limestone is formed almost completely from the calcitic skeletons of individual coral polyp colonies. Other limestones can be formed from the shells of marine organisms or be formed from the precipitation of calcite from a saturated solution, or a combination of the two. Chemically, they're pretty much the same.
