Zooplankton

ecosystems influence the way humans are exposed to the microbial pathogens. These pathogens include, marine-indigenous pathogens and pathogens that are introduced via pollution. The pathogens that are found with marine animals are phytoplankton, zooplankton, sediments and detritus. There are environment factors that go into multiplying and keeping the pathogens alive. These factors include: salinity, temperature, nutrients, and…

The invasive snakehead fish is killing and out competing our native fish species, taking their food and eating some of the smaller fish species. This paper is going to discuss the environmental effects of the invasive snakeheads.This paper will also talk about their background and possible solutions to keep them from destroying our environment. If you ever see a snakehead or catch one, here are a couple ways to identify the snakehead. They have a long cylindrical body with a large mouth and…

Welcome to the most colossal biome on Earth, the marine! This ginormous place on Earth is home to many plants and animals within its many oceans and three different levels. Pacific, Atlantic, Arctic, Southern, and Indian are the five main oceans on this planet. Each ocean is separated into three levels, known as euphotic, disphotic, and aphotic. The euphotic zone is also known as the sunlight zone, this is the top layer of the ocean and it receives almost all of the sun's rays. The next section…

ocean water and regulate biodiversity. By palpitating, they fill their giant bells with water and digest agricultural waste out of the ocean, which makes the ocean cleaner. According to Billie Abbot, jellyfish are carnivorous and feed mostly on zooplankton, comb jellies and other jellyfish. As well as, eating copepods (which eat phytoplankton and then excrete toxins into the water), fish eggs, and larvae jellyfish help regulate biodiversity. Because of the competition it is important that…

Wildlife is an important member of the ecosystem, the rise and fall of its population will affect the stability of the ecosystem of its existence. Global Climate Change The vast geographical, has led to far-reaching effects of wildlife severely affected. From polar to equatorial tropics, from the ocean to the inland. Everywhere Display The signs of change, these changes have attracted the attention of many scientists. And its extensive research. Climate and composition in different regions…

to authors Nakata, Kaoru, Sugisaki, and Hiroya in their book “Impacts of the Fukushima Nuclear accident on fish and fishing grounds” The water has caused the smallest of the marine food chain to have become contaminated. When the larger fish eat zooplankton, for example, they are infected. It turn when a shark, whale, and even humans eats the larger fish, they are contaminated and exposed. All due to the water. Even rainwater is seeing the effects. Cited from the website, www.beachapedia.org and…

The biosphere changes very little from year to year. Ocean productivity depends on the temperatures and nutrients brought to surface from the ocean current. Chlorophyll concentration can change due to temperatures in the ocean and the amount of zooplankton in that area. The global biosphere is an offset of excess carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Global warming is caused by burning fossil fuels which releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Boreal warming is a decline in greenness indices…

tiger shark, whale shark, Southern Calamari squid, jellyfish, zooplankton, dugong, phytoplankton and seagrass. The decomposer in this food web is bacteria, which works to further break down the dead organic matter in the bodies of plant and animal organisms. Producer (Sea grass, phytoplankton): Makes its own food through photosynthesis and stores its energy Primary Consumer: Obtains food and energy by eating organisms (zooplankton) 2. From your ecosystem, identify and describe an example of a…

The Horrible effects of Global Warming There is a reason that the polar ice caps are melting and what hurricanes are worse than they were about 20 years ago. Global warming was once thought to be a myth, but after of scientific evidence it has been proven that is real. Now the main point is to prove what global warming does not what it is. A dramatic rise in the earth’s atmospheric temperature linked to green house gasses and other related phenomena are responsible for the extinction of many…

The marine world is highly dependent on the activity of microbes in many different ways. Microbes in the ocean come in the form of autotrophs and heterotrophs and come in any of the three domains of Eukaryota, Archaea, and Bacteria. Members of these domains can range from all niches as producers at the bottom of the food change, critical gut microbes and decomposers. Arguably, somewhere these and more duties are most important is around the hydrothermal vents found at the bottom of the ocean.…
