We recently had a health scare with my dad which prompted a conversation as to what would happen when he is older and can no longer take care of himself properly. Mind you he is only 55 years old‚ but the man loves to think ahead. If I had my way‚ I would move my parents to San Antonio. Unfortunately‚ both my parents are very stubborn and feel that moving in with me or my sister would be a burden on our families.

Coral reefs have existed on this planet for approximately 450 million years. They provide an extremely diverse marine ecosystem. (Bellwood and Wainwirght2002) Coral reefs are the largest natural structures in the world and occur in over 100 countries. They are the result of a remarkable relationship between coral animals and microscopic algae. The microscopic algae (zooxanthellae) coverts sunlight and carbon dioxide into oxygen (photosynthesis) and carbohydrates for the coral animals (polyps)
