Food Chain In The Atlantic Ocean
Then I thought about how I could show the changes throughout time and how to highlight how urgent of a matter climate protection is.
Food chain in the atlantic ocean. The equator subdivides it into the north atlantic ocean and south atlantic ocean. While the ocean seems vast and unending it is in fact finite. Encyclopædia Britannica Inc.
In the Atlantic Sea material consisting of fish samples herring and salmon of larger body sizes we show positive correlation between concentrations of most PCBs and PBDEs and body weight without increasing delta15N. Primary consumers are in turn eaten by fish small sharks corals and baleen whales. Marine biome is primarily found in five oceans like the pacific the atlantic the arctic the indian.
Phytoplankton and algae form the bases of aquatic food webs. The food chain begins with the tiniest microorganisms who are the major producers of food in the ocean and are in turn consumed by bigger lives which are eventually preyed by the largest marine lives such as whales and sharks. The next level of the marine food chain is made up of animals that feast on the seas abundant plant life.
I got my inspiration from my art teacher mentioning species diversity which I automatically related to the food chain. One example of a marine food chain is the on the left. As the climate continues to change we are learning more about those limits.
The Eastern side of the Atlantic which includes the Norwegian Sea and the Ocean east of Iceland is at present rather poor in terms of available prey species on which salmon and other pelagic species depend. After the producers are the herbivore which eat the poducers. Learn more about food chains in this article.
In my Ocean Awareness contest piece I drew an Atlantic sea creature food chain. Quickly find that inspire student learning. Rather his study is one of the first to examine what would happen to the ocean food chain if such a disruption did take place.
