life in the marine biomes
Three main zones of the ocean
71% = earth, salt water,
home for millions of plant and animals
Five main oceans= Pacific, Atlantic, Arctic, Indian and southern ocean.
Ocean current = controls a steady land and air temperature
Evaporating= salty water into fresh water, clouds.
Ocean= largest ecosystem on earth
Because oceans connect= marine species can live all over the world.
you can find Canyons, coral reef, open water, sandy plains and mountains underwater + volcano’s
the Euphotic zone is from surface to 100 m, home for most sunlight and coral life (etc)
Bathyal zone has barely any light and it about 600 -3,000ft deep
Abyssal= No sunlight-6000 m deep
One cup salt-per gallon of water
Average temperature 39F/ 4ºC
Average depth 12,100 of the ocean
in the Euphotic zone most sunlight= light can go through
often called sunlit zone
the Euphotic zone zone often called sunlit zone
life plankton
90% of animals and ocean life live in Euphotic zone.
food for most species (smallest fish to largest whales)
The Euphotic zone Provides 50% earth’s oxygen
