2. Location The oceans location is at almost every latitude. The oceans elevation is about 400 meters below sea level, but the pacific ocean’s floor is the lowest place on earth.

4. Plants There are many plants in the ocean that help our environment. Because of how much people litter we are losing some plants. Here are some plants: Coral reef, Seaweed, Algae, Kelp, Sea grass, and Red algae.

5. Animals Animals that live in the ocean can be at any depth. I know that they mainly live in the higher part, but some do live in the twilight zone. Here are some animals: Whales, Dolphins, Angel fish, EEl, Jellyfish, Seal, Snapping turtle, Otter, Squid, Clown fish, Shark, and Star fish.

7. Some extra facts about the ocean From the seashore to the deepest depths, the oceans are home to some of the most awesome life on earth. Most plants are found in the sunlit part of the ocean. Animals are found at all parts, though 90% of the marine marine species dwell on the seabed, where one rock can be home to as many as ten major animals, such as corals, mollusks, and sponges.

8. Mammals All, mammals need air to breath, so you might be surprised to find mammals living in the ocean. There are lots of sea mammals, however including dolphins, sea lions, walrus, porpoise, and manatees. They all come up to land to breath air,and like mammals,they don’t lay eggs.

9. Fish Fish, are the most diverse colony of animals in the ocean. There are more than 15,300 known types of marine fish, and scientist think that there are thousands more to be found. New fish species are being logged at a pretty good rate of three per week.

10. Plant like animals Anemones, sponges, and sea squirts are marine animals, but they look and act more like plants. Instead of looking for their food they stay seated in one spot and wait for floating planktonic creatures to come into their reach.

11. Ocean forests Forests, of giant seaweeds are called kelp are a home, and hunting ground for a few different creatures in the shallow, cool waters above rocky seabeds. The towering kelp holds on to the rocky bottom with rootlike structures called holdfasts.

12. Crustaceans Crabs, and other types of crustaceans, including shrimps, lobsters, and barnacles have bony skeletons on the outside of their bodies. Crabs, and shrimp can swim, but lobsters can only crawl along the seabed. Barnacles stick to a hard spot, and never ever move.

13. Watery planet Most of us of probably think of are earth as being mostly ground, but about 70% of the earth’s surface is covered in salt water. The large area of water between these contents are called oceans. Areas of salt water that are close to land, partly, or completely surrounded by land are called seas.

14. Water Cycle The, ocean exchanges water with the atmosphere in a never ending cycle. Heat from the sun turns water at the ocean’s surface into vapor. This rises into the sky, where it then cools off and turns back into droplets that form clouds. The clouds pour rain, and snow which forms streams, rivers, and glaciers that flow back into the ocean. Even the water that sinks into the ground can find its way back to the ocean.

15. Sea feature About, 115,830 sq.mi. ( 300,00 km 2 ) of the seabed below the warm shallow waters of the tropics are covered in hedge like structures called coral reefs. The great barrier reef of the coast of Australia, in the Pacific ocean, is the world’s biggest coral reef system.

16. Ocean trade link Every, year almost 50,000 (a fourth) of the world’s freight use a straight of Malacca as a shortcut between two oceans such as the Pacific, and Indian. The channel is one of the most busy shipping routes in the world

17. Under the sea Just a century ago, very little was discovered about the ocean floor. Following the sonar, and echo-sounding equipment. In the early 30’s we knew lots about the sea-floor like it’s the darkest part of the ocean, or very few animals live there these are little facts that turn into one big discovery.
