2. Why is it important to have a variety of things in the Bay? It is important to have a variety of living things in the Bay. The blue crab help to keep the bay clean. The widgeon grass is important to the bay because it filters water. Oysters are great for the bay because it also filters the bay. My research will show that oysters, widgeon grass, and blue crabs are important to the bay.

3. Blue Crab The Blue Crab Help to clean the bay to keep it clean. They are an important Cray species. They clean the bottom of the bay. There is not much girl crabs to produce more crab babies. We want to increase the crab population so more can clean the bay. When people think of the bay they think of the crabs.

4. Widgeon Grass The widgeon Grass is important to the bay because it filters the water. It cleans the bays water. It produce oxygen for animals in the bay. It lose the waves effects. It makes widgeon Grass beds so it produce’s more oxygen. It feeds animals because it is very good for them. It protects crabs and young mammal’s.

5. Oysters Oysters are good for the bay because they filter the bay. Oysters filter the bay. In 1973 people caught 15 million oysters. There is a little bit of oyster’s left so there is a little bit of air plants. They clean the bay. They provide food for animal’s.

6. In Conclusion In conclusion I learned that all these animals filter the bay. And they are being endangered because we cant let them breed to have baby’s Also we kill fish or catch them.
