And on top of this, what you see,
these brown layers,
00:00:08.008 --> 00:00:10.032
this is essentially
the living organism.

This is the coral itself.
00:00:12.028 --> 00:00:14.044
It takes calcium out of the seawater
00:00:14.052 --> 00:00:16.064

out of the seawater,
00:00:16.072 --> 00:00:19.048
