*DONE*

And Streams Mixes With Salt Water From The Ocean

*Found In The Wetland Of This Community Is Mammals, Birds, Fish, Reptiles, Shellfish, And Plants

*Found Within The Coastal Bed Bays

• Where sunlight can't penetrate & photosynthesis doesn't occur= animals feed on dead animals, chemosynthesis
• 200m - bottom
• about 30*F (still liquid b/c pressure)

• Part of ocean that receives sunlight= many animals
• 200m - top
• temp varies with latitude, 28*-97*F

• Area of shoreline
• Twice a day= high tide
• Exposed to air during low tide
• animals have to adapt to constant change
• temperature is hot or cold, depending on what latitude

• Extends from the intertidal zone over the continental shelf to relatively shallow depths of 180m
• most productive zone
• 28-97*F
• shallow enough for photosynthesis

• 200m to bottom of ocean
• 39*F - just above freezing
• not many organisms exist because of the lack of sunlight-

*DONE

-Water Is Shallow For Photosythesis To Come About

-A Current Called Upwellings Is Carried From Ocean And it Is Mixed Together With Different Nutrients That Is Fulfilled With Runoff From The Land

-Water Is Rich In Plankton Envirements

-It Recieves Lots Of Sunlight

-Has A Stable Water Temperature

- By The Water Being Shallow Seaweeds And Sea Grasses Grow Very Commendable

Peatlands- Leatherleaf, Sweet Gale, Cranberry,Tamarack, Black Spruce, Pitcher Plant, Round-leaved Sundew.

*DONE*

• Some sharks, whales, eels, crabs, octopus, plankton, squid, jellyfish. There are thousands of organisms that scientists haven't been able to find b/c of complete darkness and pressure.
• ex: North Comb Jellyfish
• can withstand a broad range of temperature
• if food becomes limited, it can reduce its body size and go for a few weeks with limited food supply.

• Plankton, sea lions, clams, crabs, fish, coral,
• Ex: Smooth Giant Clam
• It has 4-6 folds=prey adaptation to appear as if it has teeth

• Have to withstand the constant change from being flooded to being dry
• Crabs, barnacles, lichen, mussels, snails, sea urchins, algae
• ex: Dungeness Crab
• can live in places with large amounts of oxygen or little to no oxygen. helps it survive the conditions in the intertidal zone.

• Anemone, Turtles, plankton, seaweed, coral reefs, fish, dolphins.
• ex: Sea Turtle
• eats seaweed, crab, shrimp, algae
• can stay under water for hours b/c their heart rate slows to conserve oxygen
• their body tissues are also tolerant of low oxygen areas

• Plankton, jellyfish, sharks, squid, clams, eels.
• ex: Goblin Shark
• Has a jaw that can retract under its mouth or protrude to grab its prey.

I found 2 that would work, but it would probably be better if we had one marine and one freshwater.

that have a great chance of flooding. Swamps are places

that the plants make up an area that is covered in water

are mainly woody plants or trees (like a mangrove tree).

The non- woody plants are things like grasses or reeds.

Marshes are usually not as deep as swamps. Marshes are

domminated by soft-stemmed vegetaion. Marshes are also

plants and animals. Swamps and marshes can be either

freshwater, salt water, or a mixture of both.

-Sunlight That Hits The Top Layer Of The Ocean Allows The Plants To Take On Photosynthesis.

Eutropic is that Eutropic is  well nourished,

it is high in nutrients and is high in plant

 growth. While Oligotrophic is low in nutrients

and low in plant life.

Provide A Shoreline Of Protection Against Erosion.

-The intertidal zone is located at the margin of the ocean, along the shoreline.  The intertidal zone has rocky cliffs, sandy beaches and estuaries where rivers empty.   Temperature can change rapidly as cold water hits the warm shells, or as the sun shines directly on newly exposed organisms.  The zone encompasses a low tide which is the area above water, and a hide tide which is the zone of that can be found under water.  Lower intertidal zone is dry, middle intertidal zone is covered with sea water, the upper intertidal zone is covered by water during high tide, and the spray zone or “desert zone” of survives on the midst of spray from the ocean. Seaweed and algae communities exist in the intertidal zone.

-Photic zone extends 70 meters (230 feet) below the surface of clear lakes and is separated by the pycnoline of the colder darker, aphotic zone. The photic zone is penetrated by light allowing photosynthesis to occur. The photosynthesis of the light creates different temperatures of the upper and lower parts of the photic zone. In shallow water, the photic zone often extends to the sediment, where rooted plants take hold. This zone extends to a depth of about 600 feet.  The depth is limited by the degree of clarity.  The presence of air bubbles, decaying organic matter, and can also limit the depth of the photic zone. 

-Coastal waters where the sea bottoms is up to about 200 meters.  This part of the ocean is shallow water where large amounts of nutrients can be found.

-The open ocean is subdivided into epipelagic, melagic, bathypelagic zones.

-The epipelagic zone is the sunlit zone, and receives enough sunlight for photosynthesis.  The temperature in this zone is range from 40 degrees to -3 degrees celcius. The mesopelagic zone les below the epipelagic zone, also referred to as the “Twillight Zone”, because there is little light.  Temperatures range from 5 to 4 degrees celcius.  The pressure is also higher in the epipelagic zone.  Ninety percent of the ocean lies in the bathypelagic(aphotic) zone in which no light penetrates.  This is also called the  midnight zone.  Water pressures are very tense and temperatures are near freezing range from 0 to 6 degrees celcius.
