Introduction to Marine Biology


To me the author of this blog I feel that the subject Marine Life is one of the most exciting topic. When I grow up I would like to be a marine biologist. Do you know want marine biology is about? If not, listen up! Marine biology is about the scientific study of any organism in the ocean or water bodies. marine biology classifies species based on the environment.Marine biology differs from marine ecology as marine ecology is focused on how organisms interact with each other and environment and biology is the study of the animal itself.Marine life is a vast resource, providing food, medicine, and raw materials, in addition to helping to support recreation and tourism all over the world. At a fundamental level, marine life helps determine the very nature of our planet. Marine organisms contribute significantly to the oxygen cycle, and are involved in the regulation of the Earth's climate. Shorelines are in part shaped and protected by marine life, and some marine organisms even help create new land.Marine biology covers a great deal, from the microscopic, including most zooplankton and phytoplankton to the huge cetaceans (whales) which reach up to a reported 48 meters (125 feet) in length.
