1. The Science of Marine Biology CH 1

2. How does it differ from Marine Biology? Study of the ocean, its surroundings, and life within it. Marine bio studies marine organisms’ anatomy, physiology, behavior; more individualistic.

3. Marine Organisms Life on Earth originated in the sea Provide food, medicine, and raw materials Tourism around the world Some can cause disease or attack people Produce half the oxygen we need and help regulate Earths climate Aristotle was the first Marine Biologist

4. Scientific Method QUESTION HYPOTHESIS EXPERIMENT DATA CONCLUSION Experimental group Control Group

5. THE SEA FLOOR Chapter 2

6. 1.Pacific- deepest and largest 2.Atlantic- Similar in size to the indian 3.Indian 4.Arctic- smallest and shallowest 5.Southern or Antarctic Ocean The five principal oceans

7. Indian Southern or Antarctic Artic Pacific Atlantic

8. Atlantic City NJ

9. Covers 71% of the Earth’s surface

10. How Earth was formed Density Mass/volume More dense sinks … less dense floats

11. How does such a big ship for from this to this?

12. Buoyancy the ability or tendency to float in water or air or some other fluid the power of supporting a body so that it floats; upward pressure exerted by the fluid in which a body is immersed.

13. Eureka

14. Archimedes Principle A ship floats because it is constructed of many air- filled compartments. Air weighs less than water. So air and steel is less weigh than the water displaced by the ship. This is why ship floats but anchors sink

15. Oceanic- basalt Continental- granite CRUST

16. Faults Ring of fire Seafloor spreading

17. Creating New Ocean Floor

19. CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL FEATURES OF SEAWATER Chapter 3

20. Atom in one polar covalent molecule can be attracted to oppositely charged atom in another such molecule

21. Properties of Water POLARITY TEMPERATURE-STABILIZING COHESIVE SOLVENT MAKES IONS

22. Water Is a Polar Covalent Molecule Molecule has no net charge Oxygen end has a slight negative charge Hydrogen end has a slight positive charge O HH

23. Water Is a Good Solvent Ions and polar molecules dissolve easily in water When solute dissolves, water molecules cluster around its ions or molecules and keep them separated

25. Composition of Seawater Pure water + dissolved materials Solids dissolve in water due to weathering Others come from hydrothermal vents When seawater dissolves ions left behind form various salts. Salinity is defined as total salt dissolved in seawater. Machines measure Organisms are affected by slight changes

26. Why cant you put a saltwater fish in a fresh water tank? HYPOTONIC HYPERTONIC

27. Amazon River Average salinity- 35 o / o Due to erosion if rocks Dead Sea Jordan Israel Dead Sea

28. Tallest Mountain: Hawaii's Mauna Kea rises 10,203 m (33,476 ft) from base to peak. Everest is only 8,848m.

29. Why do icebergs float? When seawater freezes the ions are excluded from the ice. They are left behind in the unfrozen water, increasing the salinity. Ice bergs aren’t salty The saltier the water the denser it is. The density depends on the salinity and temperature.

30. Dissolved Gases O2, CO2, N2, ETC. Gases dissolve better in cold water than hot. Much of O2 is produced by photosynthesis and released in atmosphere. CO2 is much more soluble than O2. CO2 makes up 80% Climate change

31. Transparency Why does the ocean have to be so clear? Why does it look blue? So that sunlight can get through Water near coast contains a lot more materials

32. Pressure Changes in depth Weight of the air above you Water is heavier than air…. There is more pressure Air bladders, floats, and lungs can collapse Grouper raised to quick Down to quick deflates

33. Coriolis Effect Imaginary line that creatives winds Trade winds Westerlies Polar easterlies Creates waves

34. Tides the alternate rising and falling of the sea, usually twice in each lunar day at a particular place, due to the attraction of the moon and sun. Cause waves

35. High vs Low tide

36. Sun Earth Moon Model What season and tide is it?

37. Sand formation Sand is typically made mostly of varying amounts of material weathered from inland rocks (or seacliff material) and transported to the beach on the wind or in rivers, and/or shells and other hard parts precipitated out of the ocean water by marine organisms

38. pH of Ocean

39. How does pH effect organisms

40. Design and installation of oceanographic instrumentation and vehicles Ocean Engineering
