#coral
Corals 🪸 are covered with tiny hair-like structures called cilia. Their synchronized beating creates microscopic swirling flows that act like a natural ventilation system, helping transport oxygen around the coral tissue.
Coral reefs are increasingly threaten by marine heatwaves, but what pushes corals past their breaking point?
New in @ScienceAdvances @science.org: we found that corals can lose the microscopic system that helps move oxygen around their tissues during heat stress 🪸
