By : Caroline Moore

 The Marine biome is the largest of all ecosystems.  The ocean regions are separated into different four different zones : Intertidal, Pelagic, Abyssal, and Benthic  This biome has a great diversity of species.

 This is where the ocean meets the land  In this zone the waves are constantly moving the mud and sand around which makes it hard for different types of plants to survive here.  The animals that reside here include worms, clams, predatory crustaceans, crabs, and shorebirds.

 It’s the open ocean part and is usually very cold.  It has some surface seaweed in it for its plants life.  For the animal life some mammals including whales and dolphins live here and feed off the plankton  There is also different species of small fish.

 Zone below the pelagic zone but not quite at the very deep parts of the ocean yet.  There is some seaweed but not very many considering the light in this zone is scarce due to the depth.  Bacteria, fungi, sponges, sea anemones, worms, starfish, and some fish live here.

 Here is the deepest part of the ocean and since not lots of light can reach here its about 3 degrees Celsius.  You will find lots of bacteria who live in this part because of the hydrothermal vents that release minerals that the bacteria love.  The bacteria in turn are eaten by the invertebrates and fish that live in this zone.
