I took the picture at the beach, close to the water. That's where corals and hippos are usually found... ;)
Initially believed to be a plant, William Herschel used a microscope to establish in the 18th century that Coral had the characteristic thin cell walls of an animal.
While a coral head appears to be a single organism, it is actually a head of many individual, yet genetically identical, polyps. The polyps are multicellular organisms that feed on a variety of small organisms, from microscopic plankton to small fish.
Enjoy mother natures wonderful sense of humour and see you soon again! :D |
