    The Orangespotted Sunfish

    • 885 Words
    • 4 Pages

    The Orangespotted Sunfish (Lepomis humilis) is often confused with other sunfishes. This species is classified in the class Actinopterygii, order Perciformes, and family Centrarchidae. One characteristic that makes them stand out from other fishes are their black and orange spots. Also, their operculum is lined with a solid white band. Nine to ten bars can be identified on this fish. The bars on the female have a light center, which is a way of gender identification when the males are outside of the breeding season and not brightly colored. Identification of species and gender is especially important when sampling fishes. During breeding season, males have a bright orange belly and metallic blue body while the females are much duller in color.…

    Summary: Reef Shark

    In the article I read, the focal organism is the reef shark and the food web consists of the algae (from coral), then the parrotfish and then the reef shark, or you have the algae (from coral), then the wrasse and then the reef shark. In this food web, the reef shark is known as the top predator and its trophic level is the quaternary consumer. “Sharks are important members of ocean food chains and removing them can have unintended consequences” (Meekan, 2013). When the reef sharks are removed from the ocean, the numbers of smaller predators increases but because there are more fishes such as snappers, this causes there to be less algae eating fish, for example, parrotfish. As there are less algae eating fish, the young coral in the ocean become…

    Fish is any aquatic vertebrate animal that is covered with scales, and equipped with two sets of paired fins and several unpaired fins. Most fish are "cold-blooded", or ectothermic, allowing their body temperatures to vary as ambient temperatures change. Fish are abundant in most bodies of water. They can be found in nearly all aquatic environments, from high mountain streams to the abyssal and even hadal depths of the deepest oceans. At 31900 species, fish exhibit greater species diversity than any other class of vertebrates.…

    No matter what science oriented profession one chooses to pursue, education is the undisputed key to success and the field of marine biology is no exception. While a bachelor's degree qualifies you for an entry level position, it is most likely insufficient if you have your sights set on a career involving independent research or field work. The majority of people working within the field of marine biology with only a bachelor's degree, are for the most part relegated to doing lab research and charting test results. A post graduate degree, either a master's degree or a Ph.D., is necessary for anyone aspiring to make a name for themself within the field or significantly increase the probability of career advancement. While an advance degree is necessary for the higher paying positions, the majority of jobs within the profession only require a bachelor's degree and an advance degree is no guarantee of advancement or even employment. Given the extensive educational requirements, which are a significant investment of time and money without being a guarantee of employment within the field, this paper will offer some thoughts to consider in order to determine which degree is appropriate to pursue and some suggestions that may increase a new graduate's desirability when attempting to enter the field.…

    The field of marine biology, the study of organisms within their environment of an ocean, lake, or river, has a very broad range of occupations. Marine biologists try to discover how organisms grow and develop, how they get food, how their bodies function, and how their life relations correspond to other organisms. They also use laboratory experiments to increase knowledge of human life processes. This is a great career for me to enter because there are so many opportunities to pursue my own specific interests while still having the option of working in the environment that best suits my lifestyle.…
