Insulin!

It's actually produced by your pancreas to control sugar levels. 

It's been genetically engineered by utilizing bacterial cultures (as making insulin via chemical synthesis would be VERY VERY difficult).

Semmy [17]

As we get closer to the coral reef, there are going to be several things we notice. The first thing we notice will be the large number of coral that seem to have lost their color, turning bright white. In addition, if we are in Florida, we may see something called the stony coral tissue loss disease. This disease has been of great concern in recent years in Floridian waters. Looking at these two changes, we can see that both are from the impact of climate change. As the water warms, the stress on the coral reaches a high point and they start to bleach and become more susceptible to several diseases.

I hope I've helped! :)
