2. W ell the ocean biome doesn’t have a specific location seeing as it makes up 70% of earth. A n important attribute of marine biome, which you don't get to see in freshwater biome climate, is the presence of ocean currents - which play a crucial role in formation of hurricanes. Similarly, wind is an important factor here, as it plays a crucial role in formation of waves and precipitation adds some freshwater to these saline bodies.

3. Even though the average temperature of marine biome is 39ºF, you will see a great deal of variation in the same owing to its vast size. The temperature will be at its highest at the equator – where in the ocean bodies receives direct sunrays which can penetrate deep into the water. As you head towards either of the poles, the temperature falls and eventually, goes into minus in the polar areas wherein absence of sunlight for half the time of the year and presence of icebergs in water both come into play, so it wouldn't have seasons either.

5. The ocean floor is composed of three different types of soil, known as pelagic sediments or marine sediments. They include calcareous ooze, red clay and siliceous ooze. This sediment is made of organic and inorganic matter that originated from one of four sources: the ocean, land, dead organisms, and the atmosphere. It really doesn’t limit life, it provides habitats and a reasonable food source to some animals.

6. Two major differences between oceanic plants and land based ones are structural. Land-based plants use roots to pull up nutrients and water from the soil. As for oceanic plants have water all around. The roots of an oceanic plant have adapted to anchor in to the sea floor for when currents hit the plant. Coral, Algae, seaweed, sea grass, Coraline algae and red algae

7. There are tons of types of fish found in the ocean biome. They include Angelfish, Blowfish, whales, Sting Rays and an assortment of sharks. You will find Octopus and crab living here too. Since the temperatures in any ocean biome can be very cold, they have been able to adapt. For example whales have thick layers of fat known as blubber. This helps them to keep their body temperature where it should be. Since the temperatures in any ocean biome can be very cold, they have been able to adapt. For example whales have thick layers of fat known as blubber. This helps them to keep their body temperature where it should be. Sharks have to be able to reach a body temperature just above the oceans. They use a system called thermoregulation. They have a special organ called rete mirable that allows the body to warm the colder, oxygenated blood coming from the gills, using heat produced by the Muscles and organs.

9. The largest living mammal on earth, the blue whale could be found migrating from both poles in the oceans around the world. But the excessive commercial hunting has helped its population decrease drastically and now has posed a threat to its mere existence.

But the excessive commercial hunting has helped its population decrease drastically and now has posed a threat to its mere existence. They are being hunted around the world because of their size, many men consider having a blue whale kill as the highest trophy kill of all. They are being hunted around the world because of their size, many men consider having a blue whale kill as the highest trophy kill of all. The International Whaling Commission, has taken steps to protect these creatures. Committees of experts have been formed to work against whaling, entrapment and predation of blue whales.

10. Humans can have a significant impact of the biology of the ocean where we alter its chemical composition. Some of the ways human activities influence ocean chemistry are sewages and trash, storm drain and river run-off, and oil spills. All over the world, sewage and trash are dumped into the sea. This ranges from raw, untreated sewage, to partially treated sewage. Chemically, sewage acts like fertilizer and can be responsible for toxic plankton blooms. Another possible effect is detoxification which kills marine life because there is not enough oxygen in the water to breathe. Eventually over time in the long run we’ll only have 40% left of marine life around the world if this continues.
