Dewey Notes 09 Life in the Ocean
... Species that live either on or in the ocean sediments are benthic. Bacteria and filter feeders that re-cycle nutrients are perhaps the most important. They are either predators or rely on chemosynthesis. In coastal regions, photosynthetic plants can “anchor” themselves and grow to macroscopic size. ...

Habitat conservation
Habitat conservation is a land management practice that seeks to conserve, protect and restore habitat areas for wild plants and animals, especially conservation reliant species, and prevent their extinction, fragmentation or reduction in range. It is a priority of many groups that cannot be easily characterized in terms of any one ideology.
