In the world, there are many animals, both terrestrial and aquatic animals that we know and never know before. Plankton is the one organism that we have probably ever heard its reputation. Someone may know plankton is midget living thing in the sea and as food for animals. It was the best meal of life on the water. Moreover, its dwelling is completely place and a center of the most fishes and plantings. Although people would think the plankton is only food for sea animals but it can be useful to people for take care of various organs in the body and will be creating beauty cosmetics for woman, and human should be aware about ecosystem services to maintain plankton. Plankton are organisms in the ocean that drift with the currents. This includes phytoplankton and zooplankton. Phytoplankton are plant plankton or some are bacteria that they contain chlorophyll and want sunlight in order to grow and live. It lives in watery environments both salty and fresh. Some phytoplankton can improve nitrogen and can grow in low concentrations nitrate areas. Phytoplankton are most important to the ecosystem because it is a food …show more content…
Plankton that people perceived as dirty bacteria but became the best face cream. Phytoplankton can eliminate toxins from your skin. It is also rich in vitamins, antioxidants that fight free radicals. It can take dead skin cells out form you. So the cosmeceuticals bring phytoplankton used as an ingredient in cosmetics. Baiotherm brand use life plankton in a part of their product. They used it that has a micro-organism with extraordinary regenerative properties to produce a serum for the face at the highest concentration 8 patents. This serum is cosmetic water use for surface that can be absorbed immediately. This product can treat inflammation, rashes and allergies on skin. We are cognizant of the fresh skin when we begin use it to 8 days. This results from the testing of 53 women who use this
Copepods are a group of small crustaceans found in the sea and nearly every freshwater habitat. Some species are like plankton (drifting in seawater), some are living on the ocean floor and some particular species may live in still-water habitats and other wet terrestrial places, such as swamps, under leaf fall in wet forests, bogs, springs, ponds, and puddles, damp moss, or phytotelmata of plants.
Plankton, like many other villains, is an evil-genius, having been able to build many complex gadgets to support his attempts at success, including his wife, which is an artificially intelligent robot capable of emotion, or brain-controlling devices. Another good representation of his genius include his knowledge of chemistry, such as his creation of a gas that, when inhaled, turns you into a baby. His great knowledge gives him the upper hand in many of his evil schemes, compensating for his small size and limited physical capabilities.
It is believed that the world's supply of oil will last until about 2040. If you think about it, that’s not too far in the distance future. Oil is running out fast and we need to think of an alternate energy source. When we burn oil, we release carbon dioxide into the air which causes the earth’s climate to warm; a temperature rise of 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit could have serious if not devastating consequences. In the United States alone 60 percent of each person’s carbon footprint comes from the goods they buy, while the other 40 percent comes from their energy use at home, driving, and flying. That totals out to be about 10 billion tons a year. There are other energy sources but let’s think about the environmental and energy benefits of algae biofuel. Algae was first explored as a fuel alternative in 1978. Gas prices had skyrocketed, and the government was looking to help ease the crisis. The Aquatic Species Program run by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, researched high oil-output algae for biofuel. After testing 3,000 types of algae, the program concluded that the algae, if...
Have you ever been in a situation where you had to make a decision where you life or others lives were in danger, for marines and other troops in combat it was a life style they would make decisions like this on a daily basis. Is it healthy for average people to have to make choices like this and does it cause any type of depression or mental weakness? Or does it make you a stronger person mentally? People often wonder what its like to be in there shoes there for when you meet a marine you catch yourself always asking the questions what is it like being at gun point or what's the scariest story you have from your experiences overseas. And i am here to answer those questions.
In the marine ecosystem the energy from the sunlight powers photosynthesis and photosynthetic creatures like algae, seaweeds, green plants, and multiple sorts of bacteria. These photosynthetic organisms are the start of our food chain. These organisms are primary producers, which allow the ecosystem to grow. One negativity to primary production would be climate change. Climate change influences the physical and chemical marine environment, which affects the food web, and it hurts the production of primary
The fourth and final principle of sustainability is that biodiversity must be maintained. This is where we are playing a devastating role to the survival to the reefs. Through human waste and consumption time will only tell if they will survive. I hope that by reading this paper someday we can make a difference.
According to NOAA phytoplankton are microscopic organisms that continuously convert sunlight and nutrients into living tissue. Phytoplankton can be harmful to the bay because they at an uncontrollable rate causing harmful algae blooms when there is an abundance of nutrients. Phytoplankton also serve as the main food source for a larger but still microscopic organism named Zooplankton. Marine Bio.org did a study on zooplnkton revealing that they are very weak swimmers making them an easy food source for any larger organsim. Zooplanktons’ main purpose serves as the main food source for small fish and

Aquariums are a great place to learn about the ocean and its habitats. From the bottom of the food webs to the preservations of the environments within, aquariums give people of all ages a hands-on experience and first-look at the mysteries of the ocean. Both the coral reef and the deep sea, though not well known among the general public, is presented in a way that sparks interest, showing the biodiversity in the waters below.
Organisms require food resources to obtain energy for survival and reproduction. From the food that organisms consume they acquire energy needed for metabolic processes such as respiration, growth, and reproduction. Some organisms have the ability to get food resources better than others. The amount of food availability in a specific habitat is limited, therefore organisms that are not able to get the food resources most likely will go to a unfilled niche to get their food resources. Because there is no competition and there are a lot of unfilled niches, organisms that are not adapted to these niches can exploit them. Organisms that are able to adapt to these new niches, will eventually develop mutations that will help them exploit these niches and give them a big advantage over other organisms. Individual species that are able to adapt to a new environment have a higher chance of surviving because the competition is lower and more resource is available. So organism such as animals and plants rely on adaptive radiation mechanism to ensure they survive and pass on their genes to their offspring.

Oceans are such so vast that people underestimate the impact their actions —seeming so insignificant— have on them. Humans have by and large taken the oceans for granted; not considering how important a healthy ocean is to our survival. A popular mind-set is that the oceans are a bottomless supply of fish, natural resources, and an infinite waste dump. There are myriad reasons why the oceans should be saved and the most obvious one is marine life. With 71% of the Earth being covered by water, it is obvious that sea creatures are predominant form of life, making up 80% of the species of life on Earth. However, as important as marine life is, that is not the only reason why saving the oceans is crucial. The ocean floor provides natural resources such as, oil, natural gas, petroleum, minerals, medications, and ingredients for foods and products. The economic benefits of the oceans are huge and significant, as well. Fishing and fish products have provided employment to 38 million people and have generated about $124 billion in economic benefits. However, oceans are on the verge of crisis, marine life, natural resources, transportation, the economy, and important ingredients are at risk due to overfishing, pollution, and acidification. Thus, in this essay I will argue that, oceans are not impervious to human activity and threatening the health of the ocean threatens the health of humanity, since oceans key to our survival.
How often also does a human use or eat algae in his daily life? When most people think of algae, they probably think of something that is slimy, gross, and dirty. Algae may irritate people because it grows in unwanted places like swimming pools and boats. Algae can be toxic and it is slimy, but algae benefits people in all aspects of life. Humans obtain algin from algae to help make ice cream, pudding, face cream, and shoe polish. Algae is present in hamburgers, yoghurt, and cakes. Algae also helps make explosives, insulation, and paint. Algae produces most of the oxygen that animals breathe and without it the world would suffocate. Also, according to Helen Challand, "It is now believed that the oil and gas formed millions of years ago in the ground were created by algae" (20).
Scientists have begun to say that we have to do more to protect our ecosystem, because our very existence is depending upon it. When the ecosystem is not functioning properly the continuation of plant, animal and human life ecosystems would be impossible. Life cycles can not function without ecosystems. The ecosystem provides us with clean air, water, habitats for fish and other services. They also aid in the mod...
