Coral Reef Connections

This resource explores Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, the largest structure on Earth built by living organisms. Consisting of almost 3000 individual reefs, the Great Barrier Reef houses an incredible array of biodiversity. This resource demonstrates the types of relationships among living things that have contributed to this incredible biodiversity and elaborates on some of the adaptations that have enabled species to survive and reproduce in this unique habitat.
