The major cause of staghorn corals decline is, that some organisms in the same aquatic environment affect them negatively and harm them a lot.

<h3>What do you mean by Corals?</h3>

Corals may be defined as marine invertebrates organisms that are composed of colonies of skeletons underwater bodies.

Staghorn is so vulnerable because its branches are so fragile and break by any disturbances. This causes the staghorn to ultimately disintegrate and die.

Therefore, it is well described above.

<span>What a fascinating question! Just out of college, on my first job, I was called to the delivery room to assist the obstetrician in collecting a blood sample from the not-yet born fetus? scalp. I was nearly immobilized at the sight of the impending birth. Ever since that night, I have gotten goosebumps when witnessing a birth. It is certainly an amazing event, and pondering the entire journey from conception to birth is marvelous! Some of the material I have found is published by religious, political and anti-abotion sites. Neither Google Answers nor I endorse any of these sites. Such web pages were cited here for conception and gestation information, and not because of ideology.</span>

The mantle is basically a 2,900 kilometers (1,802 miles) thick blocks of rocks and minerals underneath the crust(or the surface of the earth) , and makes up a whopping 84% of Earth's total volume.
