They are areas of coral that grow large enough to be called a reef. They are a place where many fish or type of fish live due to the safety i.e. not being expoused in water, they can hid in the reef. The coral it's slef becomes like land under water and allow the grow of plant life and of course animal life. The coral reef is an example of life coming fomr basically nothing.

Coral reefs are aragonite structures produced by living organisms, found in shallow, tropical marine waters with little to no nutrients in the water. High nutrient levels such as that found in runoff from agricultural areas can harm the reef by encouraging the growth of algae.[1] In most reefs, the predominant organisms are stony corals, colonial cnidarians that secrete an exoskeleton of calcium carbonate (limestone).

They're alive, don't walk on them or get slammed on them by a wave, they are very easily destoyed by man, great home for a lot of sea life; considering most of the ocean is an empty "desert".

They are the remains of rocks along the shores. They are vital for the oceans and they are on the world's conservation list. Without them we wouldn't have the oceans' fauna or wildlife.
