Some corals produce toxic compounds as a defense mechanism against predators and competitors. These toxins can deter herbivores and inhibit the growth of rival organisms, allowing the coral to thrive in its environment. Additionally, certain coral species may use these poisons to protect their symbiotic relationships with zooxanthellae, the algae that provide them with energy through photosynthesis. Overall, the production of toxins helps maintain coral health and ecosystem balance.
