Divers' boat above a coral reef (DI02223) Photo by Kathy Krucker
In this image the bottom of the divers' boat can be seen above the reef. Coral reefs are formed from calcium carbonate secreted by tiny animals called polyps. These colonies of polyps and the reefs they create are among Earth's most diverse ecosystems, providing shelter for a wide variety...
