This document summarizes key aspects of marine life. It describes three main water depths that marine animals live in and notes that the marine biome covers almost 3/4 of the planet. Specific marine creatures are then outlined, including sea stars that can regenerate lost limbs, walruses that live in large groups on land, shrimp that can reach over 30cm in length, kelp that clings to rocks and hangs into the water reaching up to 90 feet long, and algae and plankton that form the base of the ocean food web. Sources for the photos and information are listed at the end.

The marine biome is wherever there’s
marine wildlife in or around a mass
of water. Almost ¾ of the world is
made of water on the outer layer.

Sea Stars Freedigitalphotos.net
Sea stars are sea critters with
several legs and a funny looking mouth in the
middle of its body. They come in many
different colours and patterns. If a leg is bitten
off or falls off, it grows another leg or the rest
of the leg back to normal size to replace it.
This is called regeneration. Sea Stars live stuck
to rocks and feed on molluscs and sea plants.

5. Walruses

Walruses are large, wrinkly, brown animals that
spend most of their time on the land. On land they
live in big groups, almost laying on top of each
other, all huddled up. The length of a walrus
ranges from 2.2-3.6m (7.7-12ft). Both male and
female walruses have tusks that can measure up to
1m and up to 5.4kg in weight.

Prawns Freeimages.co.uk
Prawns are quite small decapod crustaceans
that are related to krill and DELICIOUS to have
as a side on a meal. Anyway, back to the
facts. There are 540 existing species. They
can weigh up to 540 grams and measure 330
millimetres in length.

7. Seaweed

Seaweed is a plant that lives at the
bottom of the sea. It is used in many
cooked masterpieces, my favourite
one being sushi. Seaweed has many
uses for many other things including
medicines, fertilizer, etc.

Kelp Freeimages.co.uk
Kelp grows along most rocky coastlines. The
top of it clings on to the rocks and the rest of
the plant dangles down into the depths of the
water. Each leaf has a gas bladder to keep
the kelp from sinking to the bottom of the
ocean, but there’s not too much air in each
leaf that it would all float up to the surface.
Kelp can grow up to 18-90 ft. in length.
