Coral Reefs are rock- like structures made from calcium carbonate secreted by corals. Reefs are formed of colonies of coral polyps held together by calcium carbonate. Most coral reefs are built from stony corals, whose polyps cluster in group. They are also called 'rainforests of the sea' as they provide shelter to a large number of organisms. Examples of coral reefs are the Great Barrier Reef of Australia and those of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands in India.]]> 2021-01-18 12:35:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ruhaansbains/330ow0ysqbi1w62t/wish/1097876716 ikjotsingh363 https://padlet.com/ruhaansbains/330ow0ysqbi1w62t/wish/1097892353 By IKjot Singh
Fish, any of approximately 34,000 species of vertebrate animals  found in the fresh and marine waters of the world. Living species range from the primitive jawless lampreys and hagfishes through the cartilaginous sharks, skates, and rays to the abundant and diverse bony fishes. Most fish species are cold-blooded. Fish have Gills to breathe them underwater. Their Fins help them to swim and maintain the body balance. Their streamlined body allows them to swim fast by reducing resistance due to flowing water. ]]> 2021-01-18 12:41:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ruhaansbains/330ow0ysqbi1w62t/wish/1097892353 https://padlet.com/ruhaansbains/330ow0ysqbi1w62t/wish/1097901053 By Inderpal Singh
Ocean and seas form the largest habitat on the planet. Their water is salty. A large variety of animals live in the marine habitat from tiny plankton to the largest of animals in the world the blue whale.

Pinnipeds, commonly known as seals, are a widely distributed and diverse clade of carnivorous, fin-footed, semiaquatic marine mammals. They comprise the extant families Odobenidae, etc. There are 33 extant species of pinnipeds, and more than 50 extinct species have been described from fossils.

Coastlines only make up about 8 percent of the Earth's land, but they have about 26 percent of all biological diversity. This world of seabirds, clams, crabs, starfish, anemones, fish, kelp, and marine mammals, among many others, is a beautiful place with many different types of plants and animal communities.]]> 2021-01-18 12:56:06 UTC https://padlet.com/ruhaansbains/330ow0ysqbi1w62t/wish/1097928098 ruhaansbains https://padlet.com/ruhaansbains/330ow0ysqbi1w62t/wish/1097943753 Good Morning everyone and we have made a padlet on aquatic habitat!

Estuaries and their surrounding wetlands are bodies of water usually found where rivers meet the sea. Estuaries are home to unique plant and animal communities that have adapted to brackish water—a mixture of fresh water draining from the land and salty seawater.Estuarine environments are among the most productive on earth, creating more organic matter each year than comparably-sized areas of forest, grassland or agricultural land. different habitat types are found in and around estuaries, including shallow open waters, freshwater and saltwater marshes, swamps, sandy beaches, mud and sand flats, rocky shores, oyster reefs, mangrove forests, river deltas, tidal pools and seagrass beds.

Algae are the oldest and most common type of aquatic plant. They are found primarily in the ocean and they have no roots, stems or leaves. Algae are extremely small but they are the basis of the ocean food chain. Examples of algae include lyngbya and muskgrass.

An aquatic habitat is a habitat with water. It includes areas that are permanently covered by water and surrounding areas that are occasionally covered by water. Estuaries, coastal habitat, and marine life are examples of aquatic habitats.]]> 2021-01-27 05:46:25 UTC https://padlet.com/ruhaansbains/330ow0ysqbi1w62t/wish/1129992582 ruhaansbains https://padlet.com/ruhaansbains/330ow0ysqbi1w62t/wish/1130012578 2021-01-27 05:56:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ruhaansbains/330ow0ysqbi1w62t/wish/1130012578 ruhaansbains https://padlet.com/ruhaansbains/330ow0ysqbi1w62t/wish/1130014606 2021-01-27 05:57:39 UTC https://padlet.com/ruhaansbains/330ow0ysqbi1w62t/wish/1130014606
