Animals Local Fruits Marine Life Plants / Flowers Birds The waters around the Virgin Islands are home to an abundance of corals, fishes, sharks, dolphins, turtles, crustaceans and a multitude of other marine life. The underwater world is truly magnificent and awesome; below you will find just...
In particular, marine plants resemble terrestrial plants and animals in their basic mechanisms for pathogen recognition and signaling, suggesting that these essential cell functions arose in the sea. Specific traits are based on the synthesis of unique secondary defense metabolites, often making use of...
Kelp is a term for several species of algae, typically varieties of brown algae. The individual, single-celled organisms form large colonies that resemble plants and can even form kept forests.Answer and Explanation: A wide variety of primary consumers eat kelp in the marine biome. This ...
Like other ecosystems, marine ecosystems have many components that resemble a web-like structure held together by movements in ecological balance and functionality. Such systems are characterized by bothbiotic or living (animals and plants)andabiotic or non-living aspectsthat cooperate to form anecosyst...
Anyway, now is the perfect time to take a look at these remarkable subsurface symbols of seasonal good cheer (nb they are wonderful animals not gorgeous plants). 10 CHRISTMAS TREE WORM FACTS TO PONDER The 2 colourful spirals are not the worm, but complex structures for feeding & respiration ...

that occurs annually at the end of summer inP. regalis(Bertolini1932). This conclusion was not based on direct observations occurring in nature but rather on the results of a sampling performed in September and October 1930 and 1931, when a high proportion of animals were reported to be in ...
which resemble that in land plants to achieve an optimal N-P nutrient balance13,14. In wild-type (WT)P. tricornutum, we observed a significant repression of NO3−uptake under P starvation and a significant repression of Pi uptake rate under N starvation. Consequently, cellular N content decr...
Would you expect the excretory systems of organisms that live in the sea to resemble more closely those of animals that live in deserts or animals that live in fresh water? Explain. Two marine mammals that live in the same Arctic waters differ in the level of pollutants in their bodies. Bo...
