Answer:

Coral polyps are tiny, soft-bodied organisms related to sea anemones and jellyfish. At their base is a hard, protective limestone skeleton called a calicle, which forms the structure of coral reefs. Reefs begin when a polyp attaches itself to a rock on the sea floor, then divides, or buds, into thousands of clones

Answer:

Corals are marine invertebrates that belong to class Anthozoa of phylum Cnidaria. They are colonial forms of polyps. A polyp is an individual unit of the coral structure. Polyps are cylindrical in shape. Each polyp is a separate animal. But they live as colonies. Reefs are colonies of coral polyps that are held together by calcium carbonate.
