Ocean Biome
Ocean Food Web
The producers are the start of the food chain (ex: zooplankton)
The primary consumers are the ones that get their energy from the producers (ex: sardines)
The secondary consumers get their energy from the primary consumers (ex: seals)
The tertiary consumers get their energy from the secondary consumers (ex: shark)
Mutualism
Benefits both organisms
Commensalism
Benefits one organism, other unaffected
Parasitism
Benefits one organism, harms other
How we effect the Earth:
We harm the ocean by releasing trash in their biomes, which causes a decline in species.
We help the ocean by putting in artificial reefs, which adds wildlife.
