Research Paper The ocean is one of‚ if not‚ the largest biome on earth. There are more than one million species of marine life. Covering over 70 percent of the Earth’s surface‚ the ocean is our planet’s largest habitat‚ containing 99 percent of the living space on the planet. This area holds the life of nearly 50 percent of all species on Earth. Like lakes‚ oceans are subdivided into separate zones: intertidal‚ pelagic‚ abyssal‚ and benthic. All four zones have a great diversity of species. The
