In my case, I discovered that there are many animals in the ocean and that many institutions protect areas in the ocean to care for marine life.

The most interesting thing was in my colleague Liz's article she talks about how fish have different characteristics to adapt and survive in the sea.

Vocabulary: seamount, seafloor, expedition, coral reef and adaptation

In general, I discovered that the ocean keeps many things under it and that we will never finish discovering everything that it keeps. 2. I discovered No- take zone it's good to know that the government protects certain areas from poachers and people who just want to take advantage of the ocean for their own money. 3. I discovered MPA (Marine protected area), Kelp , Great barrier reef

Discover that there are interesting and little-known fish in the depths where everything is already dark, also that there are areas in the oceans where storms and waves can be very dangerous for the navigation of both ships and planes.

The most interesting story today is that I had not analized the "Finding Nemo" movie from the point of view of the teachings or morals that this movie leaves us, such as taking risks to achieve something, teamwork is very useful and always respect ecosystems and environments.

Vocabulary:

vessels, rogue waves, compass, navigational error, boundaries.

I discovered a new type of shark specie, the important of the ocean in different cicles of the earth and how different countries are prepared for tsunamis.

I learn that in Japan was building a gigan wall to protect the urany plant for the tsunamis, the size of the wall its impresionable; and how long can be a green land shark (5 centuries).

I learn different vocabulary: hazardous, underwater landslides underneath, spine, cristal of water, meteorite, carbon dating.

Oceans feed us, regulate our climate and generate most of the oxigen we breathe. On the other hand, I discovered that there are mysteries in the water such as 'Mysterious underwater circles created by 5-inch fish seeking love'. In 1995, divers noticed a beautiful, strange circular pattern on the sea floor off Japan, and soon, after, more circles were discovered nearby. Some likened these formations to 'underwater crop circles'. The geometric formations mysteriously came and went and for more than a decade, nobody knew what made them. Finally, the creator of these remarkable formations was found: a newly discovered species of pufferfish. Further study showed these small pufferfish make the ornate circles to attract mates. Males laboriously flap their fins as they swim along the seafloor, resulting in disrupted sediment and amazing circular patterns. Although the fish is only about 12 centimeters long, the formation it makes measure about 2 meters in diameter. As well as this article I enjoyed a lot the information about 'The Top Ten Ocean Stories of 2020', mainly 'Deep sea Fishes into the Darkness' because Smithsonian and Duke University scientists found ultra-black fishes like the Pacific blackdragon, the anglerfish and the black swallower. They have black pigments within their skin that absorb at least 99.5 percent of light. Indeed, this ultrablack coloration can help to hide a predator fish from its own light and the ultra-black materials could be used as camouflage for nights. On the whole, I think that it was the most interesting article. At the end, I learned some words, for example porpoise, fishery, marine protect area, pufferfish, shell and seafloor.

I found the story my classmates told me more interesting than the one I found.

It is believed that the origin of water on Earth is due to a meteorite that crashed into the planet, which contained crystals that changed temperatures and added elements that led to the origin of life.

In my case, the story that I found was about the life span of the Greenland Shark, how old the are, the are data bases that they can live more than 500 years, the reach is sexual mature after a century!

They also can live in extreme tempetures and dive so deep, it is believed than more that 2,000 meters
