Coral reefs all over the world are starting to die due various factors affecting the microscopic zooxanthellae that live inside of coral. The zooxanthellae and coral have a symbiotic relationship. The coral provides the zooxanthellae with carbon dioxide, nutrients and protection. The zooxanthellae provide the coral with sugars as they perform photosynthesis.
