Brief Information about Deep Sea Animals
There are lots of interesting things living in the sea. Here is some information about
Minuscule Sea Animals, Sea invertebrates, Sea Reptiles, Sea Mammals, Sea birds and
other sea creatures.
Zooplanktons are the very small animals in the ocean biome - which mainly include of
small crustaceans and fish larvae. Some examples of zooplanktons are protozoa,
chaetognaths, mollusks, arthropods, annelids etc. There are 500 types of zooplankton
animals recorded in the Sargasso Sea in the North Atlantic Ocean alone, whereas the total
number of Zooplanktons in the entire world is expected to be more than a million.
Jellyfish, Octopus, Crab, these are sea animals which are usually distinguished by the
absence of a vertebral column. These types of invertebrates are generally found in the
surrounding area of coral reefs and these also referred to as coral reef animals. Examples
of invertebrates in the marine biome include jelly fish, deep sea worms, shellfish, squid,
octopus, star fish, crabs etc. As in the case of different land biomes, invertebrates make
up an important portion of living organisms in water biomes.
There are more than 31,500 variety of fishes are there in various oceans of the world.
These fish species range from microscopic fat infant fish to large whale sharks. Examples
of well know fish species of the world include sardines, halibut, sharks etc.
Sea Reptiles includes different types of sea snakes, sea turtles, and also some types which
common between sea and ground such as the sea iguana and saltwater crocodiles. Most of
the seas reptiles are found in the oceans are oviparous that is animals which put down
eggs, with sea snakes being the only exception. Due to their tendency to come on land
regularly, these reptile species are most frequently seen in low waters close to land.
Although sea snakes rarely come on land, they do prefer shallow waters of estuaries
particularly wherein they can get protection from their predators.
Dolphins and blue whales these are the two names that's comes to your mind when we
talk about sea mammals. Apart from these animals, Sea mammals include seals, sea
otters and other types of whales include gray whale and humpback whale. In marine
mammals list, Polar bears strictly don't be eligible because due to the key role they take
part in in marine ecosystem in polar areas.
Seabirds are also called as marine birds. Seabirds differ very much in lifestyle, behavior
and physiology. Some of the well known seabirds include penguins, albatross, seagulls,
etc. These seabirds are also popular for their traveling habits.
That was short information about sea animals which have an important share when it
comes to the biodiversity of earth.
The Pacific Ocean is the greatest illustration of marine biodiversity in this world with its
vibrant population of whales, sharks and fish. That’s why it is very important conserving
this diverse marine life through education.
If you would like understand everything with regards to the ocean and marine life, the
best place to begin with is the largest ocean on earth, the Pacific Ocean. It covers about
135,663 kilometers of coastline and about 28% of the world's surface. It stretches
through the coastlines of continents such as North America, South America, Asia, and
Australia. The Mariana Trench is the deepest portion of any ocean on earth with a depth of
36,201 feet. Numerous islands also dot this wide ocean, which includes Tahiti, Fiji, and
Hawaii.
