a flat platform of rock pockmarked with numerous rock pools; indents in the rocks which are filled with water and contain numerous forms of marine life. These pools can vary in size‚ from small cracks in the rock which have a changing water level or huge crevices which almost always have a level of water in them. Each rock pool has different species of marine life‚ in varying numbers. The platform lies at the base of a cliff‚ and is usually sheltered from the constant barrage of waves‚ except occasionally

A Marine Biologist Marine biology is an ideal profession for me because of my love for the ocean and my passion for sharks. A marine biologist studies all types of sea life and can specialize in studying large ocean animals. Since the release of the 1975 movie “Jaws;” I was captivated by this majestic species. I have always felt a kindred spirit with sharks and want to be part of a solution to change the general population’s perception of sharks. A marine biology education provides me with the

Marine biology is more than the scientific study of marine life. Marine biology is the study of marine organisms‚ their behaviors‚ and interactions with the environment. Marine biologists study oceanography and the associated fields of chemical‚ physical‚ and geological oceanography. Marine biologists are also able to specialize in large aquatic animals‚ all the way down to microscopic and minuscule organisms. Anything else in between‚ marine biologists are able to study. Marine biology is known

[pic] Marine biology is the scientific study of organisms in the ocean or other marine or brackish bodies of water. Given that in biology many phyla‚ families and genera have some species that live in the sea and others that live on land‚ marine biology classifies species based on the environment rather than on taxonomy. Marine biology differs from marine ecology as marine ecology is focused on how organisms interact with each other and the environment‚ and biology is the study of the organisms

Marine biology I would be an extremely happy man if I could do what I love for the rest of my life.With the many issues going on in our waters such as overfishing‚ pollution‚ and global warming. Marine biologists work hard day in and out to put an end to these terrible things that occur more often that one thinks. Did u know Water covers the 71 percent of the earth.
