Are corals and polyps both living things?

Balance body temperature: After absorbing heat, water has a relatively small change in its own temperature, and due to this ability to dissolve heat, water releases heat by absorbing heat, producing and evaporating sweat to help the body regulate body temperature and maintain normal body temperature. Crops can't live without water.

Because of water, crops can grow well. Water can help people generate electricity.

Corals are living beings, they are living and can carry out various life activities. Specifically, corals belong to animals, they belong to the coelenterates of invertebrates, and even among invertebrates they are considered a relatively low class of organisms.

Therefore, their body structure is relatively simple, and they do not have some very complex tissues and organs. However, they also have some basic body structures that help them perform their most basic life activities.

As an animal, they need to eat. They have tentacles, and they use their own tentacles when hunting. They also have a mouth structure that feeds their prey after it is caught.

They are also digested and absorbed, and then excreted. However, their mouths have both excretory functions and do not have a dedicated excretory organ.

Corals and polyps are both living things. Coral belongs to the class of polyps of the phylum Coelenterate, which is the largest class in the phylum Coelenterate, with more than 7,000 species, all of which are seafood. The class of polyps is further divided into the subclass Octoctocoral and the Subclass Hexacoral.

According to the bone texture and polyp size, corals are generally divided into several types, such as large polyp stony corals, small polyp stony corals, soft corals, and sea anemones.

Coral reef ecosystems, also known as underwater rainforests, have important functions such as coastal protection, biodiversity maintenance, fishery resources, and attracting tourism. Many corals are colorful, the bright colors are not inferior to all kinds of flowers on land, some coral species also have amazing fluorescence effects, different types of corals can be built in the aquarium to form a coral reef ecosystem, so that corals have great competitiveness in the aquarium industry.

The polyp is automatically fixed on the calcareous bone pile of the ancestor coral at the white larval stage, the coral is the shell secreted by the polyp, the chemical composition of the coral is mainly calcium carbonate, which exists in the form of microcrystalline calcite aggregates, there is a certain amount of organic matter in the composition, the form is mostly dendritic, there are longitudinal stripes on it, each single coral cross-section has concentric circles and radial stripes, the color is often white, and there are a small amount of blue and black, the coral is not only like a branch, the color is bright and beautiful, and it can be used as decorations, And it also has a high medicinal value, but its role in the environment is irreplaceable compared to the medicinal value.

Corals are not living things, and polyps are not living things.

1.The polyp is a marine cylindrical coelenterate that automatically attaches itself to the calcareous bone piles of its ancestors at the white larval stage, and grows in warm, shallow waters due to light and water temperature.

2.Corals are the shells secreted by polyps, the chemical composition of corals is mainly CaCO3, and corals are formed by the bones of polyps after death. It exists in the form of microcrystalline calcite aggregates, there is a certain amount of organic matter in the composition, the form is mostly dendritic, with longitudinal stripes on it, each single coral cross-section has concentric circles and radial stripes, the color is often white, and there are a small amount of blue and black, the coral is not only like a branch, the color is bright and beautiful, it can be used as a decoration, and it also has a high medicinal value.
