Jellyfish reproduce when a Male Jellyfish releases his sperm and a Female Jellyfish releases her eggs into the water where they both combine and create a small larvae called a Planula. The Planula then attach themselves to things such as rocks where they sit and grow as a kind of upside-down jelly fish called a "Polyp until the little Jellyfish bud off it to go live they're happy Jellyfish lives.

5 underwater plants!
-Water hyacinth
A pest towards other underwater plants and fish. It grows its stems and roots under water, then forms a blanket over the top of the water, cutting off sunlight for everything below it.
-Posidonia
This flowering plant is typically called seagrass, found mainly in Mediterranean and Australian waters. They grow only in hygienic conditions and their growth implies the water is clean.
-Kelp
The largest marine plant in the world grows in cold coastal waters and can be up to 250 feet high. It is also the fastest growing plant in the ocean.
-Red Algae
This plant has been growing in warm tropical waters for over 500 million years. In Asia it is harvested as food because it contains lots of protein and many vitamins.
-Coralline algae

This plant consists of many small filaments that grow over rocks. They are often mistaken for rocks as they are as hard as cement.

A species that has gone extinct is the Sea Mink, an otter-like creature. It was hunted for its fur and then into extinction. RIP Sea Mink.
Tecopa Pupfish is a species of fish which had the extraordinary ability to survive in very hot waters, but went extinct a decent while back (1970)

Zealandias´ total area is approximately 4,920,000 km2, which spans parallel to Australia.
-Madi

New Zealand was once part of a "supercontinent"- Godwana, as well as Africa, Australia, Arabia, Antarctica,New Guinea, India, and Madagascar. Africa broke away around 170 million years ago, and India around 130 million years ago. New Zealand broke away about 50 million years later. When New Zealand was where we know it today, it contained many strange creatures, including kakapo, tuatara, and several types of moa and, of course, kiwi. Around 800 years ago, people arrived from Polynesia, and brought an advanced hunting culture that these species had never seen. They succeeded in hunting the moa and huia to extinction. They also hunted seals and kereru. But that was before Europeans brought with them rats, stoats. possums and mice. It was only as recently as the 1960's that the last extinction was declared.-Olivia (link below)

Can we change this? kwesselink https://padlet.com/kwesselink/lje79l2yxnmw/wish/172021456 Due to pollution, over fishing and endangerment the Eco system is becoming unbalanced and unsafe in both the land and especially the ocean. Unbalancing the food system is drastically dangerous, it affects not only the fish but also the coral, mammals, birds, crustaceans and us. For example, if sharks are to go extinct, then the big fish will overpopulate eat all the little fish who, without them, the ocean will fill with all the algae they don't eat. Believe it or not, this has already happened in some places of the world. Also, rising tides have a huge effect on our ocean as we know it. Most of the media focuses on how climate change impacts arctic animals, but they aren't the only ones affected. With the sea warming the corals natural temperature is decaying and causing the coral to die, and leaving many fish homeless and vulnerable. ]]> 2017-05-16 07:59:27 UTC https://padlet.com/kwesselink/lje79l2yxnmw/wish/172021456 What species are related to one another? kwesselink https://padlet.com/kwesselink/lje79l2yxnmw/wish/172021544 2017-05-16 07:59:56 UTC https://padlet.com/kwesselink/lje79l2yxnmw/wish/172021544 When can an expert come and share their learnings with us and what do we want to learn from them? kwesselink https://padlet.com/kwesselink/lje79l2yxnmw/wish/172021767 Ben's Dad?

Blob fish are typically shorter than 30 cm.They live at depths between 600 and 1,200 meters where the pressure is around 60 to 100 times more than sea level. Due to its flesh, the fish's shape is different out of water. Its ugly look has made a lot of discussion in media outlets. In September 2013 the blob fish was voted to be the world's ugliest animal, because of photos of its dead and decompressed body.

The Mitsukurina owstoni, commonly known as the goblin shark, is a very unusual animal. It is not a very common shark, and I guarantee you would not want to swim with this hideous animal.

The goblin shark is a deep sea creature, known for its long snout and creepy looks. This rare creature is the last living member of the family Mitsukurinidae, a family about 125 million years old. The goblin shark has pink skin, a long, flat snout and they have small fins. They usually grow up to 3 to 4 meters long. They live in waters at least 100 meters deep.

They usually eat different varieties of fish, crustaceans, squid, rays and even other sharks with its long, sharp teeth. - Kayla B

Destruction is mostly OUR FAULT!
1. Pollution. Everybody is talking about building a wall in Mexico but NO one is bothered about pollution. Would it hurt anyone to put rubbish in the bin? Would our world go corrupt if we lower the price of electric cars? Have a think. NOOOOO! Think of all the turtles and other sea creatures eating plastic bags and other rubbish! The loss of some creatures could throw the whole ecosystem OUT OF WHACK FOREVER!
2. Shipping, Oil and Gas
Container ships like the Rena are a threat to our oceans. Oil spills and rubbish dumping has the same effect as what I wrote about in the Pollution segment. The anchor of the ship also can destroy reefs and other habitats of sea creatures which our crucial to our environment and food chain. Also, drilling for gas to fuel our cars is not ok! Again, same effect as the others.
3. Tourism!
Boy, I hate people. Not only is the beach our favorite place to visit but its also a 'great' place to live. Lots of beach has been taken up by beachfront houses and hotels. This is really taking its toll on marine life and reefs.
There are lots of other reasons why we are destroying the planet. Hope I entertained ya'll.

It has 25 rows of razor-like teeth pointing backwards down its throat to encourage the food down. Humans rarely encounter frilled sharks, which prefer to remain in the oceans' depths, up to 5,000 feet (1,500 meters) below the surface. Considered living fossils, frilled sharks bear many physical characteristics of ancestors who swam the seas in the time of the dinosaurs.

I have the link here, though you can watch it at home, or during lunch, or whatever. It's during the end which describes the Mantis Shrimp in his speech class story thing. You can watch it later. It's rather interesting. It also features TheOdd1sOut. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9y1WpuZx3c

Recommend watching 6:40 onwards for Mantis Shrimp stuff
