Coastal construction This effects the marine environment in many ways‚ dredging has a big impact on marine eco systems dredging wrecks reefs and destroys the homes for manor many organisms. When this happens the dirt from the bottom dirties the water up and it makes it harder for fish to see and hunt for their food. Artificial reefs are a positive impact humans have on the marine environment. Doing this builds homes for fish and organisms. It has a big impact on the food chain for fish also. Little

Summary: The book is about a boy that is a clone name Matt. Matt was created by El Patron for body parts but Matt didn’t know that because he thought he was different and special. When Matt was young he didn’t know he was a clone until he got to the house of the Alcan when Mister Alcan told his children and the maid that he is a clone and Matt overheard them. Matt didn’t believe them though. They kick Matt out of the house over the night. Then they notice that he is El Patron clone and brought him

underwater grasses are important because they feed the smaller organisms that in turn feed the rest of the food chain. Going up‚ the Zooplankton are free floating organisms that generally can not swim so they flow with the tides and currents (Plankton). Plankton are not the only source on the low end of the food chain‚ the oysters are next. The Eastern Oyster is one of the most iconic species in the Chesapeake Bay. For more than a century‚ oysters have made up one of the region’s most valuable commercial

During the photosynthesis that takes place‚ sunlight‚ water‚ and carbon are taken in by the plankton and then a fish eats this phytoplankton and this organism dies. When the fish dies it decomposes‚ and when organisms decompose they release carbon dioxide into the air. When the carbon dioxide is in the air it is used by some spinach plants. The

Another factor is the abundance of food‚ in the Antarctic the food supply is vast and consistent due to such things as the convergence zone and seasonal plankton blooms contrast this to the Galapagos Islands where food supplies vary immensely due to the climate and currents. Because of this the Galapagos penguin (Spheniscus mendiculus) is a smaller species of penguin compared to the emperor penguin (Aptenodytes

Introduction As of now the Earths ocean is home to over 230‚000 species of marine plants and animals. Today the oceans are at risk because of human activities. The main problem is climate change which leads to other problems within such as ocean acidification and pollution; these effects can all have an ever lasting impact on what’s in the ocean and what’s out. Paragraph 1: Climate Change (ocean acidification‚ CO2 ‚etc.) One of the main dangers of the oceans today is climate change
