Corals Joint Presentation Pack
Corals are animals, solitary or in colonies, that can form reefs or "forests" on the ocean floor. The indivudal animal secretes a cup-shaped limestone skeleton around its sacklike body and has poisonous tentacles surrounding its mouth. Normally associated with tropical waters, corals can form large reefs several kilometres offshore, and atolls which are a ring of horseshoe-shaped islands with a central lagoon. Contains Scott number 1951b.
