, albatrosses, cormorants, and other species, some of which are endangered, can be found in the Galapagos, which served as the model for Charles Darwin's theory of evolution.An underwater environment known as a coral reef is characterized by corals constructing reefs. Coral polyp colonies are bound together by calcium carbonate to build reefs. Stony corals, whose polyps gather together, comprise most coral reefs.
Sea anemones and jellyfish are members of the animal phylum Cnidaria, and coral is a member of the class Anthozoa. Unlike sea anemones, corals develop tough carbonate exoskeletons that support and defend the coral. Most reefs thrive in warm, shallow, clear, bright, and turbulent water. At the beginning of the Early Ordovician, 485 million years ago, coral reefs first emerged, replacing the microbial and sponge reefs of the Cambrian.
