They have a long snout-like mouth that is used for feeding on algae and other vegetation‚ with the snout being particularly handy for reaching into crevices. * It may reside in a 70 gallon or larger aquarium. It is a very peaceful species except when housed with other rabbitfish. The Foxface Rabbitfish may be housed

The warm waters around the Galápagos Islands provide a good environment for algae. The usual warming of the ocean is known as the El Niño phenomenon. In the ocean waters‚ the temperature‚ however‚ has risen to nearly 30 degrees‚ resulting in a big decrease in algae and plankton. As the water quality around the Galápagos Islands is deteriorating‚ the marine iguanas began to look

eukaryotes.[1] While there is no exact definition of the term "protozoan"‚ most scientists use the word to refer to a unicellular heterotrophic protist‚ such as an amoeba or a cilipoopate. The term algae is used for microorganisms that photosynthesize. However‚ the distinction between protozoa and algae is often vague. For example‚ the alga Dinobryon has chloroplasts for photosynthesis‚ but it can also feed on organic matter and is motile. Protozoa are paraphyletic. Though they have sometimes been

Not only does the bay grasses and algae have a part but everything living within the bay play a role in the food chain‚ whether it be the zooplankton‚ oysters‚ or small and big fish. If there were to be a decrease in any part of the food chain‚ it will have a major effect on all other members in the food chain including humans. The cause of a decline in the food chain could be from many sources such excess nutrients that cause algae populations

Firstly‚ governments need to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and promote alternatives. Plant-derived plastics‚ biodiesel‚ wind power and solar power are all things that are a step in the right direction‚ but governments need to enforce the limits on CO2 emissions for the polluting industries in their countries for these to be effective. Also‚ individuals can play a

Some examples of intertidal organisms are sea anemones‚ sea stars‚ sea urchins‚ crabs‚ mussels‚ barnacles‚ limpets‚ chitons‚ and algae. Each one of them has different adaptations to survive different abiotic factors that make life challenging for them like temperature‚ wave action‚ currents‚ competition for space‚ desiccation‚ and salinity.
