Starfish, also known as sea stars, are generalist predators that eat bivalves like mussels, clams, and oysters. They live in salt water and come in different colors to camouflage from predators. Starfish have tube feet, an ambulacral groove, spines, and a mouth, but are not actually fish since they lack gills, scales, and fins.

Sea stars ppt
Sea stars, also known as starfish, are marine invertebrates that live in rocky shores, tide pools, and bay bottoms, growing up to 12 inches. They come in various colors like brownish purple and orange and eat mussels, clams, oysters and algae. Despite their name, sea stars are not fish as they do not have gills, scales or fins, but have an armor around their bodies, move using tube feet, can regrow lost arms, and lack a brain or blood. The presentation was created to share more about sea stars after the students saw many during a camp and were interested in learning more about these common shoreline creatures.

Cam and josh octopus 3
Octopuses live in oceans around the world and are typically found hiding in holes, rocks, and crevices in salt water. They have 8 tentacles and use hooks and suckers to catch their prey of crabs, lobsters, shellfish, and fish. Octopuses have up to 20 babies in their lifetime and the babies are called larvae.
Star fish!
Starfish live in saltwater environments like coral reefs, where they eat slow animals like mussels, clams, and oysters. They have no brain or blood, and their body is made up of distinct parts. Common predators of starfish include crabs, jellyfish, and fish like salmon and pike. There are over 2,000 starfish species that can grow up to 10 inches wide and live for up to 35 years in the wild.

This document provides an overview of sea stars in 10 chapters. It discusses what sea stars eat (clams and mussels using their stomachs), where they live (ocean bottoms and tide pools), their different species, how they protect themselves using spines, their predators (sharks, squid, octopuses, birds, otters, humans), includes a diagram of a sea star, a poem about sea stars, and a glossary defining predators, spines, tide pools, and species.
Sea stars
Sea stars sleep on rocks and coral at the bottom of the ocean and eat oysters, mussels, clams, and fish by inserting their stomachs into shells. They are part of the ocean food chain with sea stars eating fish that eat baby crabs that eat slug worms eating sand, and humans eating crabs and lobsters that eat fish eating small crabs.
My ocean report sea urchins 2
Sea urchins have a round body covered in spines and tube feet. They come in many colors and range in size from a pea to a grapefruit. Sea urchins live in rocks, coral reefs, and sea grass near shorelines. They eat algae, mussels, and plants using poison in their spines to kill their food. Sea urchins protect themselves from predators like lobsters and sea otters by hiding, camouflaging, and using their hard spines and shell. There are over 800 kinds of sea urchins.

The most eminent cause is the usage of biological resources such as hunting, trapping, fishing/harvesting aquatic resources, logging, and wood harvesting, etc. Other human activities related to agriculture and aquaculture, fishing (in particular trawling without Turtle Excluder Devices and use of FADs with entangling nets), urbanization, contribute significantly in this regard. Likewise, man-made pollution created by mismanagement of waste products in domestic, industrial and agricultural sectors is noteworthy.

Animal presentation
The blob fish inhabits waters off the coast of Australia and Tasmania at depths where the water pressure is dozens of times higher than sea level. It has a gelatinous body that is less dense than water, giving it a jelly-like appearance. However, if brought to the surface, the blob fish loses its shape and becomes a pile of goo due to the change in pressure. The blob fish is becoming endangered due to overfishing through bycatch and its unusual appearance and lazy nature.

The document summarizes information about the blobfish. It belongs to the family Psychrolutidae and class Actinopterygii. It has no muscles, a long nose, and bag-like mouth. The blobfish lives off the coasts of Australia and Tasmania, eating invertebrates on the sea floor. Humans threaten the blobfish through deep sea trawling nets. To help the species, trawling nets should be avoided and pollution reduced.
Poisonous fish
Koichi Shimoyama studies biomedical engineering at Mines Saint-Etienne. The document discusses Synanceia, also known as stonefish, a genus of venomous fish found in coastal regions of the Indian and Pacific oceans. Stonefish have brown or grey skin with red, orange, or yellow patches that camouflage them to resemble stones. Their venom, known as verrucotoxin, is secreted from dorsal fin spines and can cause intense pain, respiratory arrest, cardiovascular damage, convulsions, skeletal muscle paralysis, and sometimes death in humans. If stung, the wound should be immersed in hot water up to 140°F to control pain and denature the heat-sensitive toxins.

Fish lay eggs and are oviparous, they are vertebrates that live in water, have scales and fins, and breathe with gills.
Poisonous glands of fishes
Poisonous glands are specialized glands found in some fish and amphibians that secrete a venomous or poisonous mucus. These glands occur in the skin of cartilaginous fish or are associated with spines and fins of bony fish. The glands use a holocrine secretion method to release their toxic venom, which functions as a protective device and kills bacteria on bottom-dwelling fish. Some poisonous fish include porcupinefish, boxfish, and goatfish, while venomous fish like stingrays, catfish, stonefish, and butterfly cod have venom glands associated with their spines that can inflict painful wounds.
Stonefish
The stonefish is one of the most venomous fish found in the Pacific Ocean, growing up to 60 cm long. It has 13 poisonous spines on its dorsal fin and camouflages itself with a gray or brown coloration. When threatened, it can erect its spines and deliver a venomous stab containing enzymes, toxins, and stonustoxin that can be lethal if untreated.
Coral reefs
Coral reefs are some of the most diverse ecosystems in the world, home to about 25% of marine life including sponges, sea slugs, oysters, clams, crabs, shrimp, sea worms, starfish, sea urchins, jellyfish, sea anemones, fungi, sea turtles, and many fish species. While coral reefs are typically found in warm tropical waters, Scotland has its own cold-water coral reefs, with corals that can grow in deep, cold, dark waters and catch their own food, forming large reef structures that provide shelter and food for other marine animals.
Grade 6 ISI: The Blobfish
The blob fish is a deep sea fish found off the coast of southeastern Australia at depths of around 800 meters. It has no muscles and a jelly-like consistency less dense than sea water, giving it a blob-like appearance and allowing it to float above the ocean floor without moving much. Its diet consists of animals like sea urchins and mollusks, though it eats rarely. Overfishing has threatened the blob fish population, but protections from the UN have helped prevent its extinction so far.

The sea nettle jellyfish is round and orange in color, with long thin tentacles and some ruffled tentacles. They reproduce by releasing eggs into the water and do not have complex organ systems like a brain or nervous system. Myths from Japan explain why jellyfish do not have shells.
Star sea - Starfish
Starfish are marine invertebrates commonly found in rocky areas near the ocean floor. They have five arms and come in various colors but lack eyes, blood, and a brain. Starfish detect food like clams and mussels through chemical sensing and use their arms to pry open and eat their prey. They can regenerate lost arms and live in many ocean habitats around the world, though some species live only in coral reefs. While predators may bite their arms, starfish can survive harm and are generally harmless to humans.

It describes the unique characteristics of each ecosystem and the organisms found there. It also discusses how various species have evolved different survival mechanisms such as camouflage, armor, venom, schooling, and deception to avoid predators.
Turtles
Sea turtles have a complex life cycle that starts with females laying eggs on beaches. After hatching, tiny turtles make their way to the ocean where they spend up to a decade feeding and growing. As subadults, they return to coastal waters and continue maturing for another 10-15 years until reaching sexual maturity. Mature females then return to nesting beaches to lay eggs, sometimes over multiple breeding seasons throughout their long lives, which can span over a century. Different species of sea turtles eat different diets depending on habitat, such as sponges, jellyfish, or algae, that shape their specialized beak structures.
Animals that Live in Estuaries
Estuaries are ecosystems where freshwater from rivers meets saltwater from the sea. They are highly productive habitats that support a great diversity of wildlife, serving as nurseries for many fish and breeding grounds for birds. Over time, estuaries fill with sediment from rivers and tides, eventually transforming into dry land. They provide food and shelter for many species of fish, birds, shellfish, and mammals.
