Abstract

There is a relationship between corals and Zooxanthellae algae very interesting because between both group there is an interchange of energy beneficious both of them and the presence of algae limits distribution of corals. This relationship is obligatory and without algae the life of corals go to the end (whitening), so this relationship is fundamental for both group because presence of each one is necesary for other.

Keywords: Cnidaria-Corals-Zooxanthellae algae
