26. KEY QUESTIONS  What abiotic factors influence aquatic ecosystems?  All aquatic ecosystems are affected by the same abiotic factors: sunlight, temperature, oxygen, and salt content.  What are the major types of aquatic ecosystems?  Freshwater ecosystems include streams, rivers, ponds, and lakes.  Marine ecosystems include estuaries, intertidal zones, neritic zones, and the open ocean. These zones are classified largely by the depth of water.

These zones are classified largely by the depth of water.  What are the ecological roles of organisms in an aquatic food web?  As on land, organisms in the ocean are connected by food chains and food webs. But in the ocean, the producers are algae rather than plants.
